Re: Patents: AMF/CTI CHASSIS

Felix,

It's true. I called CT the other day to check on a couple of Ultra 98s and Bill answered the phone and told me they had sold the line to ZOT.

My question, who is making all those Chassis for AMF now?

Re: Patents: AMF/CTI CHASSIS

I wanted one of their new Accuscore+ chassis.

They have been slow in getting them out.

Maybe Zot will speed up production.

Re: Patents: AMF/CTI CHASSIS

FELIX, I think the date says JULY 21,1871 [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/confused.gif[/img] it looks like a certificate
for the use of pinboys. :p [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/usflag.jpg[/img]

Well, if you go by this piece of info, it's worth about $650.00. [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img] BUT...since the original American Machine &amp; Foundry doesn't exist anymore... it's worth about $25-30 on EBay as a collectors' piece. [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/mad.gif[/img] I think I'd rather it be active stock... [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif[/img]
