Saw this on CL. Looks like the taito cab was possibly a Wild Western (?), but only $75.
If anyone gets it, please convert it back! Would love to play some WW!

If that cab is solid with no bugs or water damage I'd love to save it just don't know when I'll be making the run up to Tampa it will be soon though. I have a full Wild Western kit for it & I even have a full Tinstar kit for it & probably a Frontline kit (even though I already own a Frontline) I'm the Taito hoarder ;)

A village member already has these games on hold.

He kinda looks like the construction worker. ;)

What Strider doesn't get any respect just cause it's in the wrong cab? Strider freakin ROCKS. That cab looks awesome and if it was mine I wouldn't change a thing.

I was going to say the exact same thing.

Strider never had a cab, it's just a jamma game

Can anyone ID this cab? This is the cabinet that Toki was in.
-
Mouse Trap???
-
That's it. It was a Mouse Trap and the Taito was a Front Line.
-
I already did. Check your chat sooner when you ask a question in there :P
-
Dude what a steal of a deal! Just for the PCBs alone
-
I would kill for the Strider pcb.
-
The Taito cabinet has termites and is not coming back into my garage.
Anyone looking for parts?

That sucks.
Is it worth gassing? How bad is the damage?
I've heard thru the grapevine there's a local Tampa place that will do it $75 or so...
I know these don't come 'round often.
-
It's dead to me...It will be beaten to death tomorrow. :(
-
That sucks Phil, I hate termites. I know how it feels to find you have a waste of a cabinet, but there's no other choice imo than to terminate it, not worth the risk of screwing around with it. At least you got working boards out of it.
-
Phil the cab in the picture has termites? Looks nice to me. Better than my Taito cab that houses my Front Line. I know you said you're done with it but any way to save it?
-
wait. isn't a taito MDF? don't termites avoid MDF?
i'm drunk. could be the issue here. save all taitos. :P
i've seen termites get into a taito base. remove and discard of that via fire, build a new base. :D

I agree they'll only hit the wood pieces in the cab & base & not the MDF, someone can put it in a vault and save it for sure. Taito cabs are pretty scarce now a days won't take much for someone to save it.
-
I agree. I implore Sid to save it. I'd take it if he can save it.
-
Take it to Super Auctions, termites get a premium there!
-
If someone wants to save this cabinet, come get it. It will not be going back in my garage.
-
OK. I do not have the time to mess with this cabinet. If someone wants it, contact me and make plans to pick it up they can have it. If not it will be fed to the dumpster at work tomorrow.
-
I can't get it by tomorrow. I appreciate the consideration.
I live on the east coast.
-
not worth messing with termites.
-
Im intrested in the cab. I live in tampa and can get it immediately. PM sent.
-
That cab is long gone and dead.
