I picked up a Congorilla at a garage sale yesterday and wondering about side art. This cabinet is in fantastic shape although it has a graphics issue that I need to look into.

It appears that a common side art is the cheesy looking WICO? Anyone know of NOS or repros of that? I searched around a bit but didn't see anything in my exhaustive 30 second quest. thanks

I'm still looking for Congorilla side art.

That Control Overlay is way better than the painted version that is always flaking off. You should get that scanned.

Just noticed looks like you have the slightly better Bezel also... the artwork is not cut off in a rectangle for the monitor. The girls hair and the Barrel cut into that area a little bit. You should get this and the control overlay scanned.
 
I can measure mine when I get home today on my cabinet. Where do you want the measurements? across the bottom etc... lmk

I asked @ReproArcade the same. I'm curious if my cabinet will measure the same as yours since mine was made by "Quorum Industries"
 
It seems like kit Congorillas had the alternate bezel (with the overlapping barrel, "Pauline's" hair, and a heart graphic above the view window) as well as the light brown CPO. If you could scan the CPO that would be immensely appreciated, I love the artwork on that one, especially since it matches the colors and design aesthetic of the later DK Junior bootleg CPO intended for use in Congorilla cabs converted to bootleg Juniors.

Donkey Kong looks like an escaped mutant lab animal, and Pauline and Mario look like they're roasting in hell after she punched him in the eye.
 
Check out my even better paint skills

Any chance you can get the angles?

sorry for delay. I think I have them correct, maybe. Send me a PM if you need more or a recheck. Thanks

Looking around it doesnt look like thats an original cabinet. The art also doesnt fit, the Marquee section comes out quite dramatically on the original

I can though ( ignore the horribly quick photoshop ) do a custom to your cabinet
