John, weren't you given some kind of borescope type device a number of years ago (I think I remember you talking about it on VGO)? Could you feed the camera through the hole to see either the contents or what's preventing the box from opening?

Kind of surprised I haven't seen a thread with people's predictions on here.

I think that it's either empty or has quarters and/or the Game Manual in it.

Yes, I changed my handle.  I was never really happy with Vidiot.

I kind of suspect it's empty too, or has junk in it. Wouldn't you have heard quarters (or any other heavy contents) when transporting it?

True restoration is an art form. Like any good artist you have to know what your doing. Painting a single line on a canvas and calling it a masterpiece does not fly in restoring a arcade machine. Do it right
