Im so Jealous

spriggy:
Damn Wade!  You did good....again.   Beautifull!

What!....you didn't use the dishwasher on this one??   ;D

RayB:
You just need a Midway logo plate on that coin door to finish it up!

Wade:
Thanks guys!

To answer your question, we spent about $300 in parts on this game.  That included front/side artwork for $100, a CP overlay for $50, the laminate, buttons, and some misc bits.  We used the original Marquee, monitor glass (touched it up from behind), and coin door.

Spriggy, no dishwasher on this one!  Since it wasn't my game, I left those decisions to the owner.  Didn't hose down the monitor or main gameboard either, since they worked and we (he) didn't want to risk losing a part.

RayB, you are right, we were going to get the logo plate for $15 but I told him the coin door was so damaged he might prefer to save that money and wait for a better door to come along (so we didn't order the part).  After pounding out the major dents and using the crackle paint, I think he is happy enough with it, and a Logo plate should probably be installed for completeness. :)
