Restore, Mame, or Jamma?

Ok I have been lucky enough to get 4 cabs for delivery charge only. So my question is which would you restore, which would you MAMEify and which would you make a jamma cab of?

The cabs are:
Super off Road.
Pharaohs Gold
Frenzy Express
Vapor Trx.

I've got an idea on which to do just looking for your thoughts.



Ginsu Victim:
Kinda hard to do to much with those other than restore them.

If the offroad includes all its guts, I would definitely restore that one.  If it's missing everything, your only choice is to MAME it since it's not a JAMMA cab.  I had a gutted Championship Sprint that I MAME'd and it turned out nice.  I was very careful about what I did to install everything so it could be converted back easily, but I doubt that will ever happen.

Vapor Trx definitely looks cool, but I don't know anything about it or the others.  Like Ginsu said, I don't know what you would do with them other than restore them.

OK here's what I currently have planned:

Super Off Road, restore
Pharaohs Gold, remove the gun panel and covert to Mame.
Frenzy Express, not sure its a nice big cab and seller claims it only needs a new PSU so may keep as is.
Vapor TRX, for this I just had a flash of insperation if I remove the sit on bike thing it looks ripe for a Star Wars upright cab  ;D (whats the minimum spec pc for this?)

SirPeale:
Vapor TRX is awesome.  It's even better if you can link a couple of them together.

Where I used to work we had one in the shop already, and the boss pulled one off location that had been in a gameroom just off a swimming pool.  All the metal parts were of course rusted.  So they were all pulled, stripped and repainted - but not stock!  They were painted one of the other racer colors, so one was red and the other was blue.  Side by side it was really sweet.
