I've been studying converted cabinets for over 20 years, and I have never been able to positively identify this cabinet, no matter how many times I cross reference it with known manufacturers and games. (and I've seen games in this cab pop up several times over the years)
Its profile is remarkably similar to a Gremlin/Sega (Frogger, Carnival, etc), but it has a Midway style coin door, which G/S never used.
Midway themselves never issued a game in that shape of cabinet, however, Game-A-Tron DID (Space Bugger, Got-Ya), and they also used a Midway style door!
But look at the control panel. The panel on the O.P.'s mystery cab bends down in front just like a Gremlin/Sega, and Game-A-Tron's cab control panel does NOT bend down. So that seems to eliminate Game-A-Tron cabs as an option.
Then I thought it might be a U.S. Billiards (Piranha, Quasar, etc.) cabinet, but USB didn't use Midway type doors, so they are out.
I also noticed that this cab has no speaker grill, just holes in the wooden piece below the marquee, which is equally odd.
Question for the O.P., it looks like there may be some interior cabinet art (looks like a red sun with orange/yellow solar flares) to the left of the monitor. Is that inside the cabinet, or a reflection of something elsewhere in the room?
Also, the dark ends of the marquee look like they may contain slices of some original artwork or logos. Could somebody have modded the original game's marquee to be 95% blank (the giant white space), but kept the outer edges of the marquees original art?
Back on point, I seem to recall an ad in the back of an early 80s Replay magazine for "Sega style" (it may have even said Frogger style) generic cabinets for conversion kit installation.
So, unless this cab belongs to some really obscure Gremlin/Sega or Game-A-Tron machine which doesn't have a flyer on arcadeflyers.com (or at ALL), my conclusion is that this is a bootleg cabinet constructed in the style of a Gremlin/Sega, or a generic probably ordered from that ad I saw in Replay magazine.
Hey, when you're a self proclaimed conversion detective, you can't sweat the details.

Can you guys please look at this cab and let me know if its a dedicated unit or just a no namer?
Thanks in advance.
