nice acquisition.

can you scan some pieces, the side art and the bezel will be nice to have and trace.
I'm on the planning stage

glued down new grey laminate (not a bad color match to the original really) to side and front with impact adhesive. the laminate was quite difficult to cut with stanley knife!

still need to trim the edges and cut out the holes for the coin door with flush router bit

will need to wash down the laminate as pretty dust in this picture

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I was wondering how this came out. Just got a Gorf myself last week.
