MAde my own to fit the weird space I have to work with. I would like to re-do them one day and adjust spacing, add doors, lights, etc. Sorry for the blurry picture it's the only one I have at the moment and it's a few years old.

Perfect setup for enjoying some gaming goodness. I love the look of this corner and can see myself sitting on the floor playing.

SNES would be the system I'd try to collect every game for. I have fond memories of getting this Christmas present early from my parents, because they knew how excited I was to receive it. I have around 500 games mostly loose and continue to pick them up when I find them. 

The wife and I tried Old Grand Dad Whiskey tonight. It was the 100 proof bonded bottle and was pretty good.

If you get around to it, Jameson caskmates stout edition is delicious!

I'll have to try it, thanks for the heads up.

^Excellent Gem of your collection Calan87 and a great memory attached to it. I too love games on the Sega CD and was hooked on FMV games. My favorite being Night Trap in all its grainy glory. I've since actively sought out Night Trap for different systems and various other FMV games from my youth

I collect quite an assortment of non gaming goodies. Here is a list off the top of my head of things that I look for:

Jurassic Park- I collect anything JP or JW and so does my daughter. We have hundreds of Dinosaurs and various memorabilia. 

Hot Wheels- My son is a big collector of HW and I recently got back into collecting Die-cast cars. 

MOTU- I loved Master of the Universe as a kid and it started to pull on my heart strings again. I have around 20 figures and multiple books on the history of MOTU and the comics. 

Movies- Blu-ray, DVD, and VHS- We love to watch movies in our house as a family and we tend to collect them.

Whiskey- The wife and I started this collection trying to find other whiskies we would like. We have one or two mixed drinks on the weekends while watching horror movies. This amount will last us years and 80% of the bottles are unopened. Our favorites are: Buffalo Trace, Gentleman Jack, Knob Creek, Wild Turkey 101 and a few Irish varieties. 

Green Bay Packers- I love the Packers and enjoy watching them play football. The whole family supports the green and gold and we all have shirts, hats, etc. to support our team. Down below is an older picture of the Packer Hall, so ignore Ty Montgomery and his foolish ways. He has since been removed from the wall but Clay will always have a place. 

Coins- I've been collecting coins since I was a child and still have 90% of my collection from then. I occasionally purchase coins and tend to find coins in my other hobby metal detecting. 

Ford Mustang- I have a Mustang sitting in the garage and like to buy stuff for it and signs to decorate the garage.

I'm looking forward to future updates on this restore. Keep up the good work on bringing this awesome kiosk back to life. 

^Agreed, even the lowly V6 can make some decent power with aftermarket goodies. 

^The 281 isn't the greatest but does have some decent HP and TQ numbers

1994-2004 MUSTANG GT SPECS

• 1994-1995 Mustang GT V8 5.0L OHV (302 cid) 215 hp & 285 lb-ft tq
• 1996-1997 Mustang GT V8 4.6L SOHC (281 cid) 215 hp & 285 lb-ft tq

You can find a much nicer starter mustang for a little more money. By the time you put money into that, you could pick up a decent new edge mustang 99-04 without issues. If your set on that mustang or that model, walk that price down. I'd agree with other users and offer less than a grand on that one. I see V8 new edges all the time in my neck of the woods for decent prices. I'm sure the right one is out there waiting on you and your dad to bring it back. As far as rust, check the rear fenders, floor pans and trunk area. My mustang is an 02 fastback V6 auto, leather and 145k with everything working. I paid less than 1500 and the 3800 is an excellent motor that has enough umph to push my car around.  

I've been on the news a few times when I worked for a document destruction company. I was shown throwing stuff into the shredder and such in a news segment. This also was featured in the local papers along with a short write up and photos. My dad and I had a running total of who was in the media more. He works construction and has been in the media numerous times. Unrelated to the above stuff, I swear I saw Richard Sherman in a Dollar Tree a couple years ago. I was wearing a Packers hat and he snickered at my team of choice. We made eye contact for a few seconds, then nodded at each other. He walked past and my wife came over from another aisle to witness my puzzled stare. She can tell when I'm trying to process something in my mind and asked what happened. I told her I thought Richard Sherman was doing some shopping in the same store. She saw him leaving and agreed it might be him. I'm not a Seahawks or 49er's fan, but I do like Shermans cockiness and attitude. 

I'd rock that with some acid wash jeans and Jordache shoes. Truly is a nice jacket that your friend gifted you for your birthday. 

I saw this cover with a plumber flying and I knew I had to have it. 

I was close to being the One on 1 vs. 100 XBLA. I miss playing that on live and having the family chiming in to help. 

I've never beaten SMB 2 but have tried numerous times to complete it. My buddies have beaten it and claim its not that hard, but I have difficulty. I might need to go back and play through this one again and hopefully complete it. 

The N64 is one sexy beast along with the Sega Genesis Model 2. 

I thought I was pretty good at Mortal Kombat but my friend David showed me I wasn't. Time and time again he would kick my butt which infuriated me. He simply had faster reflexes in that game and no matter what I did he would win. 

Mortal Kombat 1,2,3

Donkey Kong Country 1,2,3

Sonic The Hedgehog 1,2,3

These are some of my favorites
