Current Restorations - Punch Out & A Couple Nintendo Cabinets
This is whats in my workshop right now. I started with a Punchout and a blue Nintendo cabinet. The Punchout seemed to have been dropped out of a truck and was falling apart. I reinforced it and am in the process of a full restoration. I have the bondo and sanding done as well as making a new pedestal and painting all black on the top, back, and inners. I had all metal powdercoated.
The blue Nintendo cabinet (Middle one in pics), I bought gutted from chips4sle last Summer. I think it was a DK at one point, but empty now. I have a multi idea for it for my arcade. I have the Bondo applied, sanded, and all black paint done on the top, back, and inners. I made a new pedestal and had all metal powdercoated for this as well.
The other cabinet was a dedicated Hogans Alley that I picked up on Craig's List last weekend. Its also empty. I just dug out a Donkey Kong bezel and control panel to put on it. I have a friend who wants a 60 in 1 and this cabinet is perfect for that project! Other than putting the marquee and bezel on, I haven't done anything to it yet.
I'm hoping to have these dome by the end of July. Here's where I'm at:
