well, I finally went to get this machine today, the cab is in pretty damn good shape overall, of course all the joust stuff is missing, but that is to be expected. with the exception of the red cpos, I think it is a pretty nice conversion, but it probably won't be bloxxeed for very long once it finally comes home.

there are a few chips in the fake woodgrain, but I'll find a way to live with them. I am very happy with the condition of the cabinet. most of the black plastic grilles are in place behind the handholds, but you can't see them in the pics.

It didn't come with any keys, but here is what is waiting for me when I get into the coin box. $.81 and a piece of original lock

even in its converted state I am thrilled to own one of these cabs. Not sure how I am going to handle the restoration, I would like to go completely original with it eventually, and get the original power supply, pcb's and wiring, but right now I wish I had got on the jrok multi-williams waiting list a lot sooner. It would be real easy to slap a jrok board into the jamma harness that is already there, and then just worry about the art and control panels, but I don't think I would be satisfied with that.

the biggest problem with bringing the cab home was the fact that we moved into a much smaller place two months after i bought the game. all my arcade stuff has been packed away,

but anyway, it is here now and here is today's pic.

getting the bloxeed art off was a nice first step. even with the horrible joystick holes it is looking a hell of a lot better
