Free Space Chaser/Generic cabs [ALL GONE]
« on: May 31, 2009, 08:46:08 PM »
Hi

I've got 2 Taito Space Chaser cabs that I'm offering up for free in case anyone is interested. They're located in Brussels.

The first cab works but the monitor needs a cap kit (image is soft), it's currently wired for Western Express (PCB isn't included). The monitor has been rotated to horizontal position and part of the bezel art adapted for this. Apart from that it's in a reasonable state.










I've no idea if the second one works as it's also custom wired and I don't have the PCB to test and can't be arsed to make an adapter :)  It's from the same source and age as the first one, so there's a chance it's the same.
Side art on this one has damage though..











If no one is interested, I'm going to rip any useful parts out of them and trash them so let me know.

Thanks.

I checked with several people and they can see them. That's strange.

Just as a backup, I created a drop with all the images - http://drop.io/taitocabs

pics work fine for me NOW, too. no idea why they didn't show yesterday.

do you know whether those cabs can be disassembled easily? are they being held together by nuts and bolts or are they glued together? i'd only be interested in the cabinets themselves ...

At first sight, a bit of both.

There are L-Shaped metal brackets holding it all together but in some places there are also triangular wood wedges reinforcing the angles which are probably glued.

If you're interested I also have a stripped down one, just the wood and the power supply, no monitor, no marquee, no bezel. It's the same cab model but the side just features the Taito stripes, no Space Chaser art, and some Lunar Rescue stickers.

No, it's a conversion. It looks like this:




By the way, the first cab is taken.

Update: both space chaser cabs are taken.

If you want the lunar rescue cab frame, it's still there. But as that one is in the way, it'll have to go pretty fast.

liquidx,

Can you put the machine on it's side and take high quality scans of the Lunar Rescue sticker and also the spaceship sticker - it's very rare to find these in good condition!

Thanks :-)
