Freebie CP - Anyone know what cab this is from?
« on: February 22, 2017, 10:49:47 pm »
Picked up this free CP off of Craigslist yesterday. Well worth the 10 minute trip just for parts. 2 Wico's in relatively good shape, 4 leaf switches and 2 start buttons that look like Atari cones with flat tops.

Anyone recognize what type of cab this CP is from? It's basically flat with the front tapered down and the back tapered up. Whatever it was on had been converted into a Rough Ranger, that's what these controls are for.

Cool, thanks Cheffo, that looks pretty close.

The controls look to be the same, but that is not the same panel at all.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Damn ... paige is 100% right. It's not the conversion panel -- it's the original:

I found one of those cabs in a weird pickup situation I was doing on a Christmas Eve. I got rough but working Roadblasters and Time Soldiers and $50 each and a perfectly working countertop at $30, but they wouldn't give up that broken Cloak and Dagger. They weren't even real arcade people.
