Just picked this up on Sunday. I've got my work cut out for me!
Galaxian cabinet. No glass, monitor intact. A little rough.

Restore? Don't convert. Create.
SirPeale:
It pretty much depends on how bad the side art is underneath. I tore off the sideart that was on there, revealing a large swath of Galaxian sideart. I'm not sure how good of condition it is, however. It looks like it was painted over with Latex paint, so that's on my side. What was under the sticker is coming off with my fingernail. If I'm careful, I may be able to salavage it. I'm going to give it ye olde college try, anyway.
If it doesn't work, I'll just hack the heck out of it, put a 5' control panel on it, with two spinners, three trackballs and four players, eight buttons per player. Strip it down, paint it black (with black t-molding).
;)

Font forget 6 light guns and a construction paper surround for the 36" TV.

What do people do to these cabs to get them in such a state?
BTW you better hurry up. There is a queue of cabs forming :P
