Help identify this cab (before conversion)
specfire:
this is up on eBay right now and I am considering bidding.
It's a combatribes now but I am wondering what it was before conversion. It seems to have a Midway style coin door but the cab shape is "Defender-esque." In this conversion the monitor sits flat, however, the plexiglass monitor bezel is upright, indicating that the original cab had a monitor that was oriented upright.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Quarters:
That looks like a generic cab made in Ottawa Canada. There are quite a few of them around here. They house all sorts of games.
spidermonkey:
I'm thinking "Frogger" or some other early Sega/Gremlin game. Most likely a Frogger cab though.
Quarters:
If you want to see a few more like it check this cgcc thread:

Thanks to both of you for answering. Spider, it sure does look like a Frogger, but I think Quarters really knows his Generic Ottawa cabs and has properly identified it. I'm thinking that whoever made these cabs back in the day must have used a Frogger as a template.
Thanks again; I think I'll give this cab auction a pass.
