I have a Ms. Pac that I will be doing a restoration on in the spring. While moving it and a few other games around, I noticed that there are carriage bolts through the side of the cabinet that hold the monitor mount brackets in place. Is this correct?
I had another Ms. Pac before and I don't remember there being bolts through the side of the cab.
I have a Super Pac (similar Midway cabinet) that has large plastic dowels in the approximate same place as the Ms. Pac carriage bolts, but they do not go all the way through the cab. They only seem to be there to locate the side brackets, which are held on the Super Pac with several smaller screws.
This Ms. Pac looks like it has been through hell, and I am thinking that the carriage bolts are a hack, but it also has the Super Pac style power supply, which I believe means that it is a late production cabinet. Is it possible that they changed something, or are all Ms. Pac cabinets like that and I just didn't notice before?
Does anybody know if the carriage bolts visible through the side of the Ms. Pac are correct?
