Scratch Built Pole Position Mame
HaRuMaN:
So, I've given up on getting an original Pole Position, after not being able to find one locally, and after hearing all the horror stories about being able to keep it running.
I'm planning on using an old PC (got several lying around) and ShifterMAME.
So far, I have bought a control panel (steering wheel and shifter intact), a gas pedal, glass bezel, and marquee. Pics later.
Also have an over / under coin door.
I need to find plans / dismensions for the cabinet, and I also need to find that plastic "cockpit" piece.
I plan on buying the full sideart from This Old Game, unless someone has any better ideas.
:cheers:

Have you looked at Gozers 3d sketchup model? Not sure of the accuracy of the measurements but it s a place to start.

Haha! I knew you were up to something. :)
Glad to see you're taking matters into your own hands! So exciting! I'll be watching in on the progress for sure. :cheers:
