I have been collection Vid's for over 10 years but until joining KLOV never thought about doing a restoration. I had always just lived with the condition that i had got them in but seeing all the restorations at KLOV got me into it!

Here is my Donkey Kong that i just finished restoring last night. I painted the cabinet (about 5 coats of paint), Installed new side art, Installed a rebuilt Control Panel, New bezel, and T-Molding.

Thanks to Quarter Arcade they were a big help!

Great Job

Looks like you did an awesome job. Nothing beats the satisfaction of restoring one yourself instead of having someone do it.

I stumbled across your Galaga restore video too and it gave me some great tips!!! Thanks.

Now, as a BurgerTime owner, I just have to give you a jab on that control panel. Better replace it soon. Make Peter Pepper proud.

Happy Holidays,
Aaron

Thanks and i agree it feels good to have done the restore myself. I can't believe i didn't come across KLOV sooner.

As for my Burgertime i was waiting for someone to say something LOL!!! Yeah i just saved that game and converted it back to Burgertime. It had been converted to a Wresting game so it took a lot of hunting around for all the orginal parts. I did order a new Control Panel overlay and will weld up the extra hole buttons and install the CPO shortly.

Thanks again,
