Hey Jow.  So it took a Punch-Out!! restore to bring you over here.  Welcome!

Thank you, good sir.  It seems we are lacking in the resto thread dept "over there".  I have been enjoying this one, and all the other one's on this board.  My Punch-Out is currently not working, but once she's up and running, I too will resto it.  Im def taking notes.

Do the cab restore now before you get it working.  Once you get it working, you know you won't want to stop playing.

Spyridon:
Painted the coin door using Rustoleum Textured black paint

Here is a shot while still wet:

And when dry:

I'm really happy  with the way it turned out.

I also used a dremel with a wire wheel attachment to shine up the coin return cover.
Here you can see the difference between the one I worked on (left) and the untouched one (right):

I also polished them when complete.  Here are both of the finished products:

Spyridon:
Coin door installed back into the cab:


I also added a lock to the back of the cab:


Since I already had two locks on the front coin doors that used the same key, I wanted the back door lock to also use the same key to open it.  I followed the tutorial over at Arcade Restoration Workshop on how to key all the locks to same.  I used an old lock I removed from a Robotron and I only needed to remove one tumbler to make it work


To end the weekend, I installed the white t-molding.  Sure makes a big difference.

That is some fine work.   :cheers:
