Pics plural?  What's the side art look like.

You got lucky, it seems, the screen looks fantastic.  Controls look pretty good, and even the stickers look like either they have been replaced once or it's been in storage for most of its life.

I will take some more pictures after work today. All in all it is in pretty good shape but needs a little tlc. I am going to open the back up and take pictures as well tonight. I do need to get a lock for the quarter intake on the front and a few other misc items. i am going to get it setup in its permanent home and will take some more pictures. I unloaded it by myself last night, trapped my leg under the machine for a few minutes and was about done for the day after that.
