My first roadside pickup / what would you do with a video slots machine?

OK, so today my mother-in-law comes home from church and tells me about an arcade cabinet she saw on the side of the road. I check it out, it end up being a video slots machine. I haul it back home-- if nothing else, there's some useful parts in there, maybe wood for a future project-- and find out that it works, with the exception of the bill collector. Slight burn in on screen, there is a printer in there that does... something. Coin mech works. Bezel was there too, in good shape, just not in pic below.

So, what would you do? Convert it into a MAME machine? Sell it (do these have any value)? Anyone else use one of these for a project?

Sell as much of it as you can and use the leftover wood to build a bartop.

I like the way you think... I guess it is a "fruit bonus 96"


BobA:

The printer and pcb have value.   Sell them and use the funds to build a cab of some sort.  Bartop would be good.

If you have the space in your gameroom, I'd restore it just for fun. I'm actually considering building one for my mom, who goes to the casinos regularly.
