WTB: Midway cabinet for NBA Jam, Killer Instinct, MKII, Etc.

Looking for a Midway cabinet that can support NBA Jam.

This is including but not limited to original dedicated cabinets for NBA Jam, NBA Jam T.E., Mortal Kombat II, Killer Instinct, NFL Blitz, and NHL Open Ice.

I am looking for the cabinet and monitor. May consider more, if available.

I am hoping to find something within 3-4 hrs of South Bend, IN.

I know it's a long shot, but figured it was worth the try.
 
To help your cause, MK, KI, and Blitz are not the correct cabs for Jam. Jam, Jam TE, Open Ice and the later Blitz 99 will work, as well as Hangtime and Showtime. Basically, if the game originally had a 2 player CP, it is not the correct cab. 4 player games, have a deeper cut/contour to them in the monitor area.

Not 100% true. there is a factory conversion for the 2 player Blitz cabs ect... to make it 4 player.
In the kit you get a new Control Panel Box, Control Panel, the Player 3 and 4 harnesses, ect...

The 2 player Blitz cab (converted to 4 player or not) still won't work for Jam artwork because of the angle of the monitor. It will play the game, but the Jam art will leave some exposed cabinet.

I see your point, But Honestly, I am one that really doesn't care for side art. its never seen anyways. And for a "Kit" game that this was also shipped as, side art is really a silly reason to limit the cab types, when Midway made SO many good 4 player cabs.
Side art is left to the cabs that were unique or rare or dedicated old school cabs. Stuff from the 90's doesn't count LOL :)
 
Thanks guys. Of course I'd rather have a Midway 4 player cabinet to begin with, but have been looking for some time and haven't had any luck locally. Also, I have a MK2 setup I could always move into the 2 player cabinet and find another for NBA Jam again. :)
