I've got a Big Red 2-Slot MVS cab that I've been planning on restoring but other more pressing projects have come up and I decided to let this one go. The cab sides are currently completely stripped (looks like unpainted MDF) and has had some patch work done to it by me. I replaced a front corner that had been damaged, but it also needs one bit on the control panel side replaced. It does not include an MVS board but it is fully working. I've got a 4 slot we can test it with for those interested.

It also has a restored control panel with a new repro overlay purchased from ArcadeOverlays.com, and it will also include it's original factory CPO. The control panel has been repainted by myself with the new repro overlay applied.  Only problem with the control panel is that at some point it fell and scratched some of the new paint so it's got a little 'scar' that can be easily replaced.  It has a few new buttons on the CPO but no sticks.  I have the coin doors for it, but no coin mechs and I even have some new repro SNK/MVS/Neo*Geo side art that has not been applied. It has it's 2 Slot marquee with a couple of mini marquees in there.  I also have the memory card plate that these cabs had (the 2 slot version, not the smaller 4 slot memory card sticker) as well as some files for repro-ing the memory card sticker that i will hand over to the buyer. Also I have the original Smoked Glass that came with the cab in perfect condition.  The monitor is in good condition as well, very slight burn-in but nothing drastic.  Those in the Austin area feel free to contact me to come by and look at it. Looking to get $175 (negotiable) for the cab, art and control panel.  It would make a great Neo-restore project or if you wanted to MAME it out, that would work as well, I suppose.  This is located in the Austin/Cedar Park Texas area. Sorry no shipping, pickup only.

Even though it doesn't have an MVS board in it, I'll throw in a Super Sidekicks 2 MVS cart at no extra cost.

One last thing, there are no pieces of wood missing. Though you see the rear of the monitor in one of the pictures, the piece of wood that belongs there IS included.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

If you guys are interested it can be shipped via uship.com, but the buyer would have to arrange everything.

I actually might have a buyer coming to pick it up this weekend. I'll update the thread as soon as I know for sure.
