FM Towns Car Marty

I got this not long ago and didn't feel like finishing the work that needs to be done and got a Marty 2. The console is on 100% working order but only comes with the car a/v wires. They can however be used the way they are as it has a male headphone socket for either stereo sound and no video or one with mono sound and audio. I used a female headphone socket to 2 standard a/v wires. I have read on these forums that you can modify this clip to make a standard video and stereo sound. Here is the link so you don't have to do the search.

You will also need a PSU for this as the one I used was from a old laptop I had around the house and just switched the polarity. It needs this configuration to boot.

Here is another link that Windowskiller sent me that would work so long as you switch the polarity by simply switching the positive and negative on the cord.

It doesn't come with a controller but they can be found on Ebay in Dreamstars store or from Yahoo!Japan if you use an importing service. It does however have the GPS box, card and controller but again it doesn't have the antenna.

The console it 100% garaunteed working and would be great if you have always wanted to play some Marty games for cheap. I am looking for $30 o.b.o plus shipping on this. This is what I paid for it like two weeks ago, check my Ebay feedback for more info if need be. My new Marty 2 is there also for more backing of why I am getting rid of this neat little item.

I live in the middle of nowhere and have 3G internet so my internet times out using image hosting so I rar'ed the set and put the pics up on Megaupload for you to grab them from there. Here is that link.

Just a FYI to potential buyers this guy is a good seller even though he has a low post count.

He recently bought a item from my marketplace thread and paid in full right away with paypal. No worries

 

Thanks for that. I am kinda low post count here but meet the requirements to sell here and can provide any feedback needed. Good day and thank you all.

 

Would you ship to the UK? If so how much would it be?

 

Sure I will ship anywhere. Let me get your address via PM and I will get you a quote. If you want tracking, insurance, etc let me know so I can add that in please.
