I picked up a couple of cabinets today from a friend and fellow collector - an early serial Asteroids UR and a converted Robotron cabinet. The Asteroids should clean up OK, just missing the PCB and the control panel is well worn. I have the Takeman repro for it. It has yellow text on the bezel, owl eye door, 801 monitor, and wood under the leaf switches attached under the control panel.
The WMS cabinet was a Robotron, but is pretty rough. The top and front would have to be replaced. The bottom is pretty rough, and I think that if I restore it, I'd use a biscuit joiner and replace the bottom couple of inches. I have everything to build a Joust UR, minus the bezel, so this will probably get stripped and stenciled Joust. Pics below:
