Some Changes to the Collection - and a 1979 Star Trek

Quick update - I sold the F-14 Tomcat because I wasn't playing it all that much.  I sold it for a bit of profit which was nice.  Pins are becoming more popular it seems and there are a few F14's on Craigslist in the $2000 range. Crazy!

I also sold the Secret Service as I wasn't putting in the time to fix it.  I was kinda sad to see it go.  I bet it would have been fun to play.  But it went to a guy who collects so I figure he will get it working.  Made money on it too.

I posted the Dracula but it has not sold.

And I picked up a new pin - a 1979 Star Trek by Bally



It's in great shape and originally came from an arcade in Edmonton.  Plays nice.

Porsche

I was cruising Craigslist in my area and found a 2001 Porsche Boxster for sale.  It was priced low so I went to take a look at it. It was an American import and seemed in great shape.

It has a lot of km - 220,000 but is mechanically sound.

It will do nicely as a summer car for days when I can put the top down.

So I officially joined the Porsche owners club.

The garage is getting full though - I need to sell a few things...
