Williams Defender restoration

(1/2) > >>

mchay:
A couple of weeks ago, I got a call from someone who had a couple of arcade machines in his garage, that he wanted to part with. I went out to him and discovered that he had 3 Defender machines - which was in descent shape. We don't see Defender very often here in Denmark, so I couldn't stop myself from buying them. One has a broken monitor and one is missing power supply and some other stuff - but it looks like I made a good deal.

It wasn't before last night, that I got them home. Now the restoration begins :D

I have a couple of pictures. They are a bit dirty, but I will start cleaning the next couple of days.

I'm new to restoring arcademachines, so I hope that some of you can help me out - if or when I hit a wall.

RetroACTIVE:
Those look pretty good... I did the same:

Its a fun one!  I'd be happy to answer any questions I can.

spacies:
Wowza,

Very nice find!

Retroactives Defender rebuild is the best around.
You  have a lot of fun ahead of you.

Good luck.

ChadTower:

Niiice... those actually don't look bad at all, just dusty.

ratzz:
Not fair ... You have three and I haven't got one.  :'(

Good luck with everything - I love Defender (even though I was crap at it!).  ;D
