Would it be wrong to restore to a Tron instead of going back to Gorf?

Close cabinet but not the same.  The Gorf cabinet sides stick out,  Tron does not.
Nice Score!   :applaud:

Well, alrighty then... that answers that question.  Gorf it is!

I had a Gorf cabinet that I had planned to MAME a while back, but then decided to sell instead to someone who was going to restore it.  I didn't have the heart to MAME it.  It was in nice shape too.  It was just missing the monitor and gameboards.

So good choice!  Don't MAME it!

Well, that's not all that needs to be replaced to make it a nice mint Gorf again.  The Joystick is busted and the trigger doesn't seem to work quite well.  Gorf also has lights on the bezel that shows the level.  I need to find/make a wire harness for that if possible, the monitor fades in and out from a little color screen to nothing but white.  I'm assuming that a cap kit will fix this.  I'm guessing about $300 and a little bit of work would get this back to a nice looking Gorf.
