I only have poor iPhone pics at the moment but you might enjoy them anyway..
The thing seems to be complete... Monitor, power supply, jamma hookup etc...
It has a cool late 70's, early 80's Marquee with a transparent center where you can put any game title image.
The CPO seems to be a later addition. It also seems to be made out of a larger picture.... It looks like there is a line of text on top and the word "OUT" under the right joystick.

A nice catch. I really hate that start button placement though. Very common on these Nordic cabs (Cherry / JK). I would switch out the steel buttons, and use them as start buttons (as originally intended as it's harder to push them by accident).

I was thinking the same thing about the steel buttons.
Do you have any tips for me how to get rid of the oxide on them? I was thinking that I'd clean the up and the clear coat them.

"Svinto" is your friend. They will look as new. Until the new oxide takes effect.
