That's awesome!

I desperately want a 'Championship Sprint' cabinet - but all I can find locally is a Badlands cabinet
*think Sprint meets MadMax.  Yuck.

I might pick it up and get a Champoinship Sprint PCB and see if I can convert it!

Nice find though!!

I dont know how you guys find these cabinets at such a great price. Everything near me is way overpriced and in horrible condition.

yeah well I went through hell for nearly 2 years trying to find dedicateds, now I am turning them away if they don't spark me.

Right now I am re capping the now clean Atari board that goes to this sprint 2.
I didn't think I was gonna get away with it that easy .
