I'm the new owner of this Zaccaria cab I really like a lot.
At first I've thought it was a Pac and Paint dedicated one (because of the marquee), but a quick Google search revealed it's not. The seller told me it's a pre JAMMA cab (it now has JAMMA wiring) he found with Galaga in it.
I've thought it could have been a generic cab for any game they wanted to swap inside but then I've noticed it has playing instructions on the left (I can't read them yet as the cab is on its way) so it could have been a dedicated one.
What do you think? Have you ever seen something similar somewhere? Is that its original control panel?
I don't know if this is the best section to ask about that but it's somehow artwork related because, if I find out someone has messed up with it (and I'm pretty sure someone did), I would ask for some help recovering the original artwork (marquee, control panel...) as it would be lovely to restore it like it used to be back in the days.

Wow! What you have there is a Zaccaria "Mutt"! :o I have lately been fascinated with Zaccaria cabs, so I like it, too!
To me that looks like a Astro Wars cabinet, Dodgem Bezel, Pac and Paint Marquee and Comidar Control Panel. All taken from different Zaccaria cabs.
Spend some time here...there are tons of great info and pictures that should help:
