Has anyone found a source for the funky brown appliance-style power cords found on Williams upright arcade games? A few of mine have been replaced and I'd like to restore with the "correct" style cord.

Any insight appreciated!

Aren't those outdated? (For a reason)?

I can understand restoring games to the "original" look, but I always thought that some go overboard.

+1.... Does that cord have a ground prong??? I would scratch the idea and go new.
 
Aren't those like lamp cords?! Eek!

I kind of prefer upgrading my cords with those heavy black round ones.
 
dang, 2-prong brown cords? I'd order some, but that's pretty dangerous. I still have an original on my stargate power supply and plan to keep it that way. For my multiwilliams, with an original stargate power supply that has a cut power cord, I'm using a bob roberts black 3-prong cord.

They are 3 prong flat industrial cords used on pinball machines
 
Since most of the molded plug ends were replaced long ago, you can get bulk flat brown cord (14 ga IIRC) at Ace Hardware stores. Don't recall seeing it at HB or Lowes.

I usually just get a 15' extension cord from Wally World, cut the end off and wire it in.
