Outrun Cab Salvage (Dash complete. Speakers in the seats upgrade)

(1/33) > >>

gbeef:
Hey im a long time lurker, decided to post on arcadecontrols. I finished my hyperpin cab. I bought some Sega rally cabs but when they arrive they were really beat up cracked and busted. Some of the panels on the cab were cracked all the way through, the owner actually had metal braces holding it together. On top of that the machine was freezing and parts were busted also, such as the shifter and peddles.

After much thought ive decided to salvage what i can and do a rebuild converting into a arcade/PC/PS3 racing cab. The concept is based off of Outrun, but i didn't want to emulated the same design.
 
The specs.
i5 760
4GB ram
GTX  260 768
Logitech G27
32" LG LCD 1080p
BUTTKICKER FTT (this thing is gonna rumble)
I will be running hyperspin front end.

Here's what i have mocked up in the garage, test fitting carboard pieces


heres a photoshopped version of what im going to do. The artwork inst complete im still playing around


Here updated pictures.

Corbo:
I love the artwork.  Where are you based?  UK?  Just a guess as the gear stick is on the left :)

emphatic:
The artwork is great looking. I would like to see the gray parts white instead though. Just to know what it'd look like. :applaud:

SNAAKE:
I am gonna have to steal your design and make a driving game asap!

lol :burgerking:

BadMouth:
 ;D  Always happy to see a driving cab build.

I have the same basic cab your base is made out of if you need any dimensions.
That seat is going to be a LOT more comfortable than the plastic one.
