Sold my first "Multicade"

As I posted in September, I picked up a Vigilante game for a decent price. Then in November, I posted that I began turning it into a 60-in-1 Multicade. Today was the day that I finished it:


I spent about an hour today wiring the new "Pac" style joystick, installing the rebuilt monitor chassis and mounting the pcb. Previously, I installed a custom marquee and bezel, black control panel overlay and some buttons that matched the color scheme. The next step was to list it on Craigslist. I decided to leave the sideart on it and if it didn't sell I would then remove it for a cleaner all-around look. I took a few pictures, wrote some cheesy copy and popped it up on the local CL. Around 30 minutes later I received a phone call from someone wanting to buy it. Fingers crossed, but by tomorrow by 11 AM this "Multicade" should be sold!
