Was an 8-Ball action, now it's a DK again. DONE. WOot!
Been playing around with this one for the last few months and I am happy it's done.
Started its life as a DK and at some point someone converted it to an 8 ball Action:
So, I converted the PCB back to DK (burned new roms, new Z80, new color proms, also found the sound CPU to be bad), capped the monitor (it had fold over), painted all the black, new t-molding, bought a used bezel, marquee, and CP from a KLOVer, and threw some new side art and instruction stickers on.
I was fortunate enough that original blue sides were pretty darn nice. So, I didn't have to touch them, they really cleaned up nice with some simple green.
Also, I totally messed up the side art on one side. Tons of bubbles. It's ok.
Then I remembered I bought that spray rapid tac stuff and did the other side using that magical wet formula. WOW!! Works great. Bought it here: http://www.rvinyl.com/application/tools/rapidtac.htm
Work in progress...
And, all done! WOOT!
Need to get a coin door lock, I'm all out of my 3001s, and also need to paint the CP and get a new under the CPO instruction card. I also need some of those damn CPO bolts. Anyone know a source??
