I picked up an empty cabinet from treborlicec this past weekend. I'm not sure what to do with it since I already have a cabinet for Wild Gunman and another for Fix it Felix. I'd like to turn it into something to keep, but I already had a red DK and a DK Jr. Any suggestions?

I also picked up a couple of Red Tents while in Indiana. I had posted a request for Nintendo cabinets awhile back and had an email one day saying they had a couple of the red sit down games. I knew immediately what he was talking about and struck a deal soon after.

While not pristine, they're not in horrible shape. I have all 4 monitors, don't know if they work yet though. Some surface rust here and there but I don't think anything too bad. I was a little disappointed that the panel on the one was drilled. I'm hoping to find some replacement panels. So if anyone has any leads...

I also picked up the Hogans Alley from renegadefred a couple of weekend ago (not pictured). The cabinet is rough, but the gun and game worked great. The monitor sorely needs a cap kit. I need to figure out what to use that cabinet for as well.

All in all, not a bad 2-3 weeks.

Seems it already has a footrest.. just adjust that middle board, and there ya go.. Nintendo Chair.

I don't blame ya for not picturing the Hogans Alley one.. that was a tough cab.

I'm not much of a Nintendo guy, but I'd still like to see what becomes of it.

Best of luck to ya!

I would have, just didn't have any pictures handy at work. :) The best way I can describe it is, it looks like someone took it off the base, hooked a chain to it, and dragged it across a parking lot. I think I'm just going to cut the bottom flush and see how that looks on a new base.
 
Well Popeye sucks and seeing as how you said you had a DK and a Dk Jr. my only suggestion would be to turn it into a DK3.

I traded away a DK3 kit I had. I'm not much of a fan though. I actually like Popeye more (already have one of those in my collection).
 
Even though it was a DK maybe it'd make a good vs cab? People seem to like Duck Hunt

I do have a Hogans Alley setup, so that might not be a bad idea. I was planning on getting Hogans Alley and Duck Hunt to go in my Wild Gunman/PC10 though, so it might be a little redundant.
