gameguy1957:
I bought the correct style Molex connector and built a control panel wiring harness. The switches on the buttons and joystick were really cheap and the pump buttons would not work at all, so I robbed a couple of good switches from another old control panel.

The joysticks are Wico's, but the switches are flaky on it too. So I swapped switches around between the two sticks until I found four working. They'll do until I can order a new set.

Here's a pic of the almost finished game being played. I still need to strip the black paint off the sides, but I can't find the 3M Safest Stripped anywhere in town.

I also still need to pull the control panel and weld up all of the extra holes that were drilled into it and then add a new overlay.

I'll post a final pic once I get those two things done.

Spyridon:
Good progress.
