HOMEGAMEROOM

Great set-up, Rich. I'm with Supa in that I'm more impressed with what you did to the machines than the fact that you have such an impressive "GAMEROOM."

In all fairness, MissyBling, Rich has been TRYING to get us to visit for some time now. He even offered us free lodging for Mid Ohio.

Rich, I might suggest that you do not document your other nickname as thoroughly as you did this one :naughty:

LOVE "the girls." Supa: Do you want to share custody?

It's raining like H$&L here and I need to run errands :willy_nilly:
BYE ALL... George :wave:

Sure I'll share custody with you. :naughty:
 
Mr. Gameroom,
Are all of those cool play things in your basement or is your house one HUGE arcade???:dunno::dunno:

VERY, VERY COOL!!!

Impressive!!!

Awesome toys Rich, thanks so much for sharing them with us. You have done a great job restoring them. I've got a 50's Coke machine that you can take a shot at.:lol:

How did your collection get started? Your place looks great! Perfect for Supa.:lol:

Bruce :D
 
Yep, everythings in the basement. I have about 2/3 of it finished off for the gameroom - the other 1/3 is storage.

Like many things in life, I got started with one pinball machine, which led to 2, and so on. I'm out of real estate and am happy with what I have, so the collection has been the same for a while now.

I always loved pinball machines since I was a kid. I remember playing a similar bowling machine in a department store when I was about 4. I'd always beg my om for a dime to play it.

I have a soft spot for games too - pinball always facinated me ... when I was little there was one at the front door of Thrifty Drugs - All of that bling must have been the trigger for life!
(check your email - something interesting for you to check out) .... I used to work for a game business about 10 years ago. Watching the techs take those things apart was facinating ... like computers, with literally, all the bells and whistles! :rocker:
Great room - I'm envious.

They are fascinating to take apart and repair, but maybe not as fascinating as washers and dryers!!!! :laugh::chuckle:laugh: Ohhh, I'm gonna get it for that one!!!! Yeah, I still crack myself up!:chuckle:laugh::lol:
 
'66 Corvette

Great to see such nice toyz! I've owned this Vette for 22 years now:

Hence my name,
427
 
Wow! What a beauty! Thanks for sharing!

I parked next to a 69 Vette when I went for my run in the park the other day - the owners had over 140,000 miles on it, and she looked great!

Side note- I might see 1 XLR on the road every year where I live. On my way home last night, there was a Gold Mist ahead of me! I sped up and gave a honk and a wave! I was hoping they'd follow me, but they didn't.

Beautiful '66! One of the most beautiful cars ever built. Do you get to drive her much? Where did you find her? Have there been others?

Very nice looking Stingray, 427. Have a friend with a Yellow '67, but it needs work. They are awesome looking cars. :wave::cool:

Shes a beauty. Well taken care of. I had a 67 when I came back from Nam and this car was so fast and just awsome. I have always regreted not holding on to it but who at that time would have thought they would have the value they have today. :rocker::rocker::rocker:

Homegameroom, yep the name makes sense. Nice collection of toys & games down there. Must be a huge basement. Very nice.
427: very nice Corvette, always loved the mid-years. Let me know if you need a right testicle, maybe we could work a trade! LOL

Wouldn't it be nice to find a GIANT garage with maybe a small suite above it to live in? I'd be happy!

So would I, and the Mrs. also!!!! Maybe when the economy picks up a bit :patriot: I will build another garage on my property and start all over again. :cool:
