I know I've mentioned to a few people about this.Well here is the post.

My latest pickups are 2 Mario Bros widebody cabs! The first one I got from Raiden 2112 at the 10/2 Super Auction.It's the cab painted black.It was converted to a Hellfire.:(

The other cab I won off of ebay 2 weeks ago.RickB68 and I went and picked it up yesterday.Texarkana is a DRIVE! Lots and lots of trees and grass and......not much else.Breaking down or running out of gas would really suck out there.And yeah....sketchy cellphone reception at best.

This cab is cosmetically way better looking than the Hellfire conversion one.It's physically a little better as well.The orange cab's base needs some work as it's missing the front piece and the ones on the sides are a little loose.The black cab has only the front piece remaining on it,hence the lean it has.The orange cab also has no back door or monitor,the black cab does.

I plan on restoring both and keeping only one.I know this will be a time consuming process,especially with one of them,but it will be very much worth it!

On to the pics........ (and no,I don't have a Jurassic Park pin....this first pic is from the ebay listing.)

Nice pickups! I have yet to restore mine completely, but I did do the control panel (CPO from Quarterarcade) which makes a world of a difference.

I recommend Gregatron's immaculate MBWB restoration thread for inspiration, pointers and motivation. :)

I know that thread well! It inspired me to find a MBWB cab.Phet's MBWB restore gave me motivation to find one as well.

Going to enjoy restoring this.I love this game! :D
