It's not very common and I've only seen two others in the west coast even though all of them were in the San Jose area.

I've had it a while and when I didn't know anything about monitors it's vert hold gave out and I had a "friend" that owed me a favor which was to send off the chassis to get it fixed. He ended up loosing the chassis so I had the machine in storage for 2 years pretty much. I got it out of storage last week and I managed to get a replacement monitor from this friend.

I was able to put in a trisync Wei-ya M3192D monitor, which is a true flat screen tube into it. I ran my Naomi board in via VGA and the picture looks really good. I've hard wired the power and the degauss into the cabs degauss button. I polished up some of the panels, replaced some of the screws changed out the joysticks and added some weatherstrip foam to atempt at filling the monitor gaps. There still big gaps left from the bezels curved shape not fitting against the newer flat tube.

I have access to blast city machines but for some reason this Namco really does it for me... I think it's the cup holders!

That thing looks amazing. It kind of looks like a mix between the Batmobile and a candy cab. You sure find some sweet cabinets!!
 
Awesome and very unique looking cab. Haven't ever come across one of those in person. Gotta love the built-in cup holders. Is the entire body made of plastic?
