I've been looking for a bit, and can't seem to find anyone selling a DK/DKJr/Popeye style coin drawer.

I've seen plans to build them, but I'd really like an original... but I'd settle for a nicely done reproduction.

So... anyone got one they'd like to sell?

Thanks!

I know several people on the forums here have the cabinets. But im not sure any of them have the coin box. Imo though id just find a small plastic bucket and put it in its place all it does is hold the coins.

True restoration is an art form. Like any good artist you have to know what your doing. Painting a single line on a canvas and calling it a masterpiece does not fly in restoring a arcade machine. Do it right

I reproduced one earlier this year for my DK and I have a DK Jr that i'm restoring right now that has the original drawer.  I can send you a pic later of the one i reproduced and see how you like it and I could maybe help you out by making you one.  I'm at work right now though so I can follow up with you later today if that's ok?

Here's the pics of the coin box I made when restoring my side by side with an original coin box.  It turned out pretty well.  Since then I acquired a DK Jr cabinet that had the original coin box, so I could make one that is even closer to the original now.  Let me know if you want any help making one.

I want one too. Mine didn't come with one either. Begs the question, why were so many pulled out and lost?
