Does anyone know that this cabinet was originally? I picked it up from Craig's list the other day and was trying to figure out what is was before it was mamed.

The coin door style suggests a cabinet that wasn't built in America. Other than that I have no clue. The side profile looks closet to APB, but it certainly isn't one of those.

Was this near LAX by chance? :)

No it was here in denver.

You didn't LOWBALL HIM, MAN, did you?

I paid what they were asking for. $100. It wasn't working when I got it. Now it is

Sorry, jokes among us who have been around the last couple years. ;D
Although I half expected it to come from near LAX.
There is someone out that way who is legendary for gluing posters (and other things) on cabs:

Unfortuneatly, he's toned it down a lot since we've made fun of his work.
I wish we would have preserved more of the pics instead of just linking to them. :'(

That, and the actual listings. I think it was the Astroturf one that had "Don't Lowball me, Man!!!!1!!" in it. I love that line. :laugh2:

All the pics in the Star Wars Pachinko thread are gone. :banghead:
I watch his auctions. Hasn't been anything crazy in a long time.
The poster on the front of your cab is consistent with his current level of stick-gluery.
It's subtle, like the marquee on this otherwise nice sci cab:

That Camaro is so incredibly badass that it only need two wheels. 8)

Now that you mention it I did find some old word files about houses for rent in the lax area along with some old family picture. The guy I got it from is in the Air Force and was just based in Cali. So this probably from that guy. Lol. Oh how small the world is. Good catch. I understand the joke now.

He probably realized that all the extra toppers and toys were costing him more money than he saw getting in.
-
Still can't place the cabinet shape. The way the front of the sides curve in at the bottom is throwing me.
-
Also thanks for the link. It made me laugh. I will strip down the cabinet one day and do something with it. In the mean time I will just enjoy the mame in it.
-
If this cab is form that same guy, at least its nicer than those other examples.
still that multi marquee bezel is a little loud, maybe you should swap it out for some astroturf
