I just finished up restoring this Sea Wolf, it's the second one I have done. I restored one last summer, too.
This one turned out better than the first. It was in a lot better shape than the first one, too.
This one had all the original things with it: manuals, instructions on upper and lower(back) doors, operator tag on the mirror, coin collection records from new until 1982 when it was pulled from that route, the step(a lot of SW's are missing the step), the coin box, and all the original keys and locks(at least they look that way).
I had a lot of ups and downs doing this, and I'm no expert at restorations and all that goes with it. But it should be a nice presentable piece that would look good in any gameroom.
Here's some before and after pics:
Pic #1: periscope handles before sandblast and paint
Pic #2: disassembled coin door before sandblast and paint
Pic #3: bottom (side) of game before sanding, filler and paint
