OK Good so this is basically an original version of the way it was done? 

Hey guys, I have noticed everyone talking about the bent plexi for punch out and when I bought mine I got mine in 2 pieces with a metal piece both pieces attach to.  heres a pic I hope it comes through

My question is was this ever used like this originally or is it a hack job?

Well I don't have one. I have a hot shot basketball that used to be a pacman. Been thinking about going to galaga instead of pacman.  I have a pacman, 2 ms pacman and a ms pacman cabaret.

I just thought it was a pacman cabinet painted. Plywood

What would be the best finish?  Satin?

Hey guys was the original galaga cabinet painted or black vinyl?

Thats the kind of guys who make it hard to get good deals.  I have a buddy who I got , Jr. and Popeye off of for some work I did and after he gave them to me found a price on the internet for "restored" retail and thinks he gave me $3600.00 in games.  They all need work.  Repaint, Joystick Rebuild, monitor and sound board caps and new tmolding and side art. 

Yeah I may restore the cabinet and sell it without a board

Hey guys im at work and I know this is going to sound stupid but im looking into buying a bulk load of connectors and I was curious what kind you thought I should get and what sizes.  what is the standard wire size for arcades.  also what connectors should i get.

any help is appreciated.

Do you have to have it uploaded to the internet?  like on flikr or instagram?

Lets see some pics!  Good luck Bro.  Just let the citristrip sit for about 15-20 minutes and get a wide putty knife and that crap just oozes off

ugh

Mortal Kombat 1 has the front of the cabinet that sticks out and that you can slide the PCB out of the front.  Mortal Kombat 2, 3 and 4 are all flat fronts.  If you have an MK1 cabinet I would restore it to MK1 art and just put whatever PCB you want in it. Below is a link to a custom MK1 overlay that lets you add the Run button for 3 and 4.  If you can get MK1, MK2, MK3, UMK3 and MK4 boards you can put a 6 in 1 switcher and have them all.

just something to think about.

I think john should get some kind of commission for this because I am about to get that for my VS. SMB. 

Thanks guys.  This may be my first video restore series.  Need to find a reactor board set  I dont have to sell a kidney for.
