I would love to have one of those Dynamo cabs. If the monitor works, grab it.

so i been a mamer for a long time but this is gonna be my first cab is there anything i should be looking for that is a tell tale sign of walk away. im thinking if the cab is in good shape and the monitor or the board works id be happy. tho not sure if its even a mk board inside.

Looks like a pretty good deal to me, more or less of a good deal depending on whether the front glass is included and whether you plan on keeping the marquee and side art(if present).  For comparison, I obtained a MK2 cab for free.  The sides had been painted black.  It did not include the CP, monitor, or glass.  It cost me $20-30 to strip the paint from the sides and luckily the side-art is in great shape.  I still need to find a TV to put in it, probably another $30.  The front glass will cost me about $80.  Spent $20+ on a slot cutting bit and a forstner's bit for the CP.  Still need to buy wood, plexi and paint to build the CP, probably another $30-40 (using a MK poster for the CP overlay).  The marquee will cost ~$30.  Then I also had to buy joysticks and buttons, don't know if you plan on keeping the ones that are already there.

To me, the value is dependent on how much you plan on keeping and how much you plan on changing out.  If the monitor works and the front glass is present then $150 is a deal.

Yenome:

yea i dont know how much i will have to change out atm till i see it but i do got a set of cheap x-arcade waiting for a lil cab to call there own. right now im using them to play with stick mockups. im gonna try to fire it up tomorrow when i go to take a look at it will have more pics then even if i dont buy it just to show everyone.
