time pilot page
This is the story of how I acquired my dedicated TimePilot game. One Saturday (June or July of 1999) my best friend Wade gave me a call and told me about a video game some guy had out in his front yard with a forsale sign on it. I don't remember if he had told me the name of the game or not but I jumped in my truck and you would have thought I was on the NASCAR track. I picked Wade up and we went to where the game was. It was a dedicated TimePilot and looked like it was in pretty good condition but the guy said it did not work. He was asking $100.00 for it and as I was handing him the money someone else in a truck pulled up and wanted to know how much for the game. I smiled and said sorry I just bought it.:-) He could not find the right keys for the game so I had to wait till I got home to look inside. Turns out the coin box was full of pennies. I should have counted them to see how much was there but I never did. After looking around inside the game I saw the switcher power supply had a meltdown and looked like it almost caught fire. I put a new power supply in and the game came to life and played great. I got a NOS marquee as the paint on the back was flaking off and also a NOS control panel overlay. The game needs a little cosmetic help but it has made a great addition to my collection. Just need's some TLC. Below are a few pictures of my TimePilot.
End of story for now
