Control panel being stripped (so weird how some colors stick to the adhesive like this), and the full cabinet:

You can't start a restoration thread with just pics of the control panel! Let's see the whole cab.

*shrug* we have two here in town that I go to. I guess it depends on where you live.
Do you have a Fastenal where you live?

I was told by some locals where I could find them. Photo of whole cabinet added in first post.

Irony of irony, after going to a store today and picking up a couple eclips, later I decided to clean out the crap in the bottom of my "new" Road Kings pin and what do I find? An e-clip, exact size too.

I put the e-clip there for you, Ray. :cheers:

You're psychic!
No, I will not bother with stenciling. I will either attempt hand touch-up of the front and sides so it's "good enough" or get a repro sticker for the front. That's as far as I want to go with this one. I have a feeling I will sell it one day, especially if I get my hands on a cabaret style Ms Pac.
