I've been working on a VS. Dualsystem (very slowly) for about 6 months now. It's been an uphill battle -- a lot of things have been replaced. Most of the particle board was replaced with plywood, most notably. New CPO's. New T-molding.
A lot of things still to come -- monitors need to be re-capped and adjusted. I still need to finish the wiring harness (building from scratch, as there was none when I bought it). I'm still re-doing the coin doors (complete tear-down, strip, re-build). Still needs art. Basically, lots of work to come. I'm not necessarily going for minty-fresh, but I'd prefer it to not be water damaged and beat to hell.
But, today was a momentous day -- I got power, both monitors, and one side of the controls and sound wired up, meaning I could enjoy a little VS. Excitebike this evening.
Is it all downhill from here? Probably not, but IT OFFICIALLY LIVES. Heck yes.
And, to boot, I got a lot of nice tools out of the deal.
