UPDATE: 6/11/11
****Finally got around to doing the work. Used citristrip carefully. Found part of the stencil underneath. So I slowly applied more and took the time to get down to the stencil. Yet low and behold the one who had painted it did some patch jobs on top and stripped the stencil on top of the cab. So I decided to just completely strip it after wasting all that time.
Question: What should I follow up with? The cabinet is particle board and its been especially difficult to get the citristrip off around the edges. Seems to goo up and turn to snot. Figured Id wait for it to dry and then just sand it off.*****
Sway me 1 way or another on the fence about this one. Just finished up the SPO project and I have this Qix which has been painted and customized as you can see. Insides hacked and jammatized.
Options:
1) Strip Down Full Restore to Qix
2) Converting to a ZooKeeper if I can find the parts. (doubtful)
3) Leave since the Orange paint and front detail is a good job. Def. want to convert back to original harness and just use a jamma adaptor & 60n1.
What say thee??? If I wanted to complete restore any avenues for stencils/parts etc?? Or good methods to strip the orange paint and salvage the original taito stencil.
Thanks fellas
