Seat, a LOT more comfortable than Star Wars CP ! Dirty, dirty, dirty....

You can always repad and revinyl that seat. It is actually pretty easy to do. I redid all of the seats in a boat once and it went pretty quick. Of course, you could also add padding the the SW - you know, like it should have been in the first place. (Cheapskate manufacturers :angry:)

Indeed ! I guess Atari figured that they wanted the player to get out asap again after they dropped their quarters ;) Won't use any permanent stuff in the SW CP though, I always stick to original (as much as possible)

1) Konami GX400 and....

...backside of the PCB set....anyone recognize his name ? At least there's no doubt about what game it is...

OK, since it looks like there's a Jamma adapter on the PCB, I guess the racer cab is actualy some "general" racing cab from the UK. The fact that it completely lacks any game specific artwork or marquee also indicates to this.
The seller was a really nice guy. He is a fellow collector. Had a nice new house with a game room that he was still setting up. Already there: (Yellow) Computer Space (!!! 2nd CS I see within a couple of weeks !!!) Defender, Pac Man, Centipede and a Funhouse Pin.
He also had MANY more cabs in storage, waiting to be sorted and examined.
Made me look like a beginner :D

Of course I'll give the original hardware a fair chance first :D
