Title: TNT is restoring a Journey. Post by: Swanland Arcade on July 03, 2014, 11:27:28 pm As title says: TNT Amusements is currently restoring a Journey machine. The video up now is a "Todd's Tips" about reseating the RAM chips without taking the board stack apart.
John: I thought you might find this video interesting as it clearly shows the components inside the cabinet and how they're positioned. The tape deck isn't at all how I thought it would be mounted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdaTUqRfNsM Title: Re: TNT is restoring a Journey.

Post by: lordkahless214 on July 04, 2014, 10:50:21 pm he told me on the phone he wanted $2.500 for it LOL :D typical over the moon TNT retail pricing, when I'm ready to buy a Journey I know where two of them sit, and can buy both and still have enough left for beer, pizza and parts. But to be fair I have bought a few non working boards from them though, very nice people, but I like to do my own work and pay less, I guess we aren't his market though.

No BIGGGY :'( Big fan of Todd, but I have to admit, when he puts the stack on the pin glass and I heard the screech....whoops. Title: Re: TNT is restoring a Journey.

I woulda bought the two journeys, beer and pizza by now. To be honest ive seen one sell without todd's warranty for the same price to a KLOVer . he is doing the mod, but damn, he has the original tape deck setup and I wonder if that works lol Title: Re: TNT is restoring a Journey.

Besides, he knows I spend thousands with him a year, heck he's already got his hands full sourcing me a Dig Dug an empty Pacman cab and a Tron :D but, even if he did sell them I wouldn't be too devastated as it's way down on my list. Title: Re: TNT is restoring a Journey. Post by: VertexGuy on July 14, 2014, 12:22:20 pm I still woulda bought the two journeys like tomorrow lol.
Kept one, sold one. Title: Re: TNT is restoring a Journey. Post by: VertexGuy on July 14, 2014, 10:16:54 pm I wonder how this is fucking going, lemme pop over to his chan and see if they made progress.
Cant believe john got a fucking tape player functioning .. that's impressive. I guess if you want something bad enough you will get it . |
