Hey guys first time poster, long time lurker! I am finally ready to start my first restoration on a machine. I've been watching you amazing guys for years and decided I've accumulated enough knowledge to at least give it a try.
The first arcade id like to restore is for my Dad who is battling through Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer. Its a horrible thing to watch him suffer. My family is hopeful though!
His favorite arcade game back in the day was Nintendo Vs. SUPER MARIO BROS. He's always wanted one of his own but never made it happen. Id love to be able to restore one of these machines for him. I know it wont be amazing like some of the restorations ive seen you guys create but i think i could give it a good go. Either way I know it would make him happy and just having it around would hopefully take his mind off other things. I live in Arlington, Washington but would travel to neighboring states if I had to. Ideally i could find a complete project machine locally in poor shape that I could repair. I'm about 25-30 miles North of SEATTLE and if i cant find locally id travel a small ways into Oregon or Idaho. I am more than willing to pay for one of the cabinets i just cant seem to locate any near me! Anyhow thanks for taking the time to read my ad it is appreciated! Please let me know what you have. Ill attach a few random pics i found on the net but im sure you guys already know the cabinets im describing.
