Vaguely resembles an Atari "system ??" cab (Marble Madness, Road Blasters, Road Runner, etc), but it's got some differences...
NO MORE!!

That's what I was thinking, but that high marquee is different.  I suppose if somebody were to modify a System 1 cab to use a standard-sized marquee, it might end up like that.  If so, they did a darn good job, I can't see any joint in the wood.

Looks to me like a custom built cab. One thing I do know is I wish him/her good luck trying to play spy hunter on it.

Yeah! FUGLY  :censored:

I don't think it is a conversion. I think it's just a home built with some Atari type features.

It's still FUGLY......

It's a question of asthetics..... You might like one piece of art, when someone else hates it.

Personally I still think it's a really Fugly Cab IMHO.
