I picked up a non working Mario that played blind back in the winter months as a project and have just about finished it up. I have a little bit of touch up to do and I need to decide if I want to add the insert coin sticker to the front of this. I decided to give it the same paint scheme as a widebody and I think it turned out pretty good. Oh sorry for pic they came from my phone.

1.Cap Kit-Monitor is Great
2.New CPO
3.Striped and painted coin door along with coin plates.
4.Bondo and sanded cab
5.Primer
6.Paint
7.Final touches still need to be added (side art?/coin stickers)
8.Oh yeah new T-Molding and Buttons.

Awesome job. I have been waiting for someone to paint the Mario conversion to look like the dedicated a widebody for a long time. I knew it would look sweet. Almost did it myself once, but I found a widebody before I could start. Good man.
 
Very Nice work! :)

What did you use the paint the coin plates with if I may ask?

Thanks, I ended up taking the metal coin return and quarter output plate off and just using soap and water to clean those since they were in good conditon. I used Rustoleum Painters choice aluminium colored spary paint for the plates.
 
Hey if nobody buys them I might have to store them somewhere or live with them in the garage :) Hey Bill I don't know if you remember but that is the DK Jr. that was in the garage when you came over and picked up that spinner.

That is a fair price. However, if you need to store one or both of them I might be able to help for a few months. But, they will need to hang out in the garage. :)
