Hi there
Just purchased my first arcade machine last week and can feel the addiction kicking in already )
It was an old silver star unit with an original capcom final fight board
Bringin back many old memories from 20 years ago
I keep looking at auction sites for other cabinets now too ) and have been researching building my own mame machine

Welcome to the addiction!

Well the cab was absolutely filthy - i think it had been living in a kebab shop judging by the grease and paint spills all over it
6 hours calening later its a lot better - the screen was totally black with filth, im suprised you could see the picture
Other than one loose wire on the coin mech that i have fixed it is in full working order
It's not much to photograph as it is only a silver star generic cabinet but looking inside the jamma board has capcom printed on the board so i assume its not a copy
I'm hoping to print up some final fight artwork to spruce it up (i work at a printers), been searching for days on the net for some hi-res without any luck til i saw a post in here in the artwork section, fingers crossed i can get the artwork soon
I can take a few pic tomorrow if you really wanna see?

You can appreciate a good job more when you see how bad it started.
