How would you fit a control panel on this cab-in-et (HAPPY NOW, ZAKK?!?!?!?!)?
Ken Layton:
Looks more like a Missile Command caberat cabinet to me.
REBIRTH:
Why couldn't you build out a decent CP from that? Looks like you could attach a couple of 2x4's to the inside on either end, and then slide/attach a "normal" CP over them?

Because I'm broke. Heck, I'm broker than broke.
MrArcade:
That is an easy cp to make. It just sits on the boards going to the back of the cabinet. The control panel would just be a rectangle of wood. The rear edge of the cp would have a piece of L attached. The L would go over the bezel to hold it in place.
Then you just need a marquee to cut and mount in front below the cp.
Zakk:
It's a ponycab if i've ever seen one. Here is how I converted one just like it "on a budget". In hindsight I would do an external bolt on panel.
