A few weeks back the wife surprised me with a $2.00 purchase from a garage sale. This is the real deal and best of all it was never opened. Very cool!!!

A “Frenzy” of a Restoration – Part 4
Tagged Under : Arcade, Berzerk, Frenzy, Restorations, Stern
Since “Part 3″ I’ve been able to wrap up the Frenzy restoration. Amazing how all the small final details seem to take for ever. However, the end results are always very satisfying when a restoration finally comes to a close.

About a month ago someone on craigslist who happened to be minutes from my house was selling an original Coleco Ms. Pac Man mini arcade game for $30.00.

A “Frenzy” of a Restoration – Part 3
Tagged Under : Arcade, Berzerk, Frenzy, Restorations, Stern
Since “Part 2” the Frenzy restoration has been moving forward fairly quickly. I’ve painted the cabinet, removed the spray mask, installed the black textured T-molding, painted the brackets and carriage bolts, replaced the speaker, preserved / installed the Marquee.
I won’t get into to many details at this point and time but yes I officially have an Ice Cold Beer (ICB) in my garage. Ahhhh yes, the ultimate party novelty arcade has arrived. A big thanks to MudManTim, another MI collector who was generous enough to have delivered it to me out of his personal collection. Also, another big thanks to someone we’ll leave unnamed at this time who also helped make this happen.
