I have a weird relationship with this game.....they never seem to stay.......there always seems to be a bigger better fish.....


1) Meteor by Hoei -> Now living happily in a Museum in Denmark
2) Asterock by Sidam -> Now in good hands on the east side of the country....hope it has returned to working condition already...
3) Asteroids project shell with loads of parts.....still waiting for a big restorations/assembly....
4) .......................mmmmmm, what do we get when we mix some of the above ingredients...........

Picking this beautiful Italian lady up tomorrow !!!! FINALLY a (short) Road-Trip story again :D

Notice that Italian "Ferrari" flair:

- shiny side art
- real silver T-molding (Well OK ....chrome look :D)
- real silver coin door with special Atari Italy logo (OK, it's aluminium :D)
- green buttons........(OK those look like shit, but it's original !)
- Atari Italy - Bertolino Marquee. Sadly the original Bertolino plexi bezel is missing...

The machine also lacks the backdoor and the monitor only shows a vertical line but hey....that should be a piece of cake...

PCB seems to run the game.

I think from the pics I see also one (silvery) Atari cone button is also missing.


This is the best of both worlds for me: a Euro version cab AND original Atari ;)

It also takes one project from my list: Asteroids.

Looks like fixing the monitor, putting a button on and making a coin door are on the list to do, but that's a lot less work than I had waiting for me ;)

Cheating? No, I just read your sales topic and draw the conclusion. Congratulations BTW.  :)

Things have actually improved a bit. But yes that Asteroids shell needs to go quickly :D
