Will a Centuri over and under coin door fit a Atari machine?

I have a over and under coin door assy from a track and field. I was wondering if the door's and coin mech's were the same setup as my championship sprint?

The coin mechs have been robbed and both doors seem to be bent on the CS. That's why I want to replace it out.

I know it's a long shot...

Anyway I could have sworn I had an extra door or two off a pole position or pit fighter but I can't find them today.

Couple snaps below!

They sure look the same. Here are 4 more snaps. The first 2 are of the centuri t&f mechs and then the last 2 of my atari pole position mechs.

Again I am only comparing the centuri door from a t&f to my pp. I don't really have anything to compare to on the championship sprint they are gone.

Are they the same???

I believe they are the same, from Coin Controls. I just refurbished my Track and Field coin door with parts from another door that came off an old Atari cabinet.
 
Yea I ran across that name on the archive. http://arcarc.xmission.com
Whats strange is in the track and field manual they have some different door than the over and under I have off well a t&f.

Im confused... anyway

In the manual for championship sprint they have the coin door assy built by "Coin Acceptors, Inc."
 
Well the manuals confirm that pole position and championship sprint are the same coin doors.

I just can't find a decent manual for the t&f or hypersports.
 
It's not uncommon to find different coin door manufacturers doors on the same game. No one coin door manufacturer could keep up with the demand. I know Atari (primarily) used Coin Controls brand and Coinco brand, but it doesn't surprise me that there were others. Both doors you pictured are Coin Controls brand (as you stated)....and of the same era. All parts are interchangeable/the same between the two.
