Title: Looking for the demensions of this cab (Attn: Paige)
Post by: barranger on September 12, 2004, 10:11:48 pm
Hey folks,

     I'm looking for the plans for this cab, it used to be a street fighter II cab (but from searching this site I've learned that most if not all SFII cabs were converted cabs)  I've seen the cab in good condition, but I've no idea what it's called.  

Thanks a million in advance,
Barranger

After searching high and low it seems that this is the same cab:

All I really need is the demensions of the CP.  If anyone knows them or has one of these cabs around and wouldn't mind a little work with the tape measure it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,
Barranger

Kinda looks like Centipede with a new bottom added to it.... Paige will know.  ;D

Update: 5:06pm: It's not a Centipede.

Or just replace the title with "Cabinet ID."  He loves those.

Maybe you should add his name to the thread title (done by modifying the initial post) once he sees his name he'll be too curious not to look, it's very strategic!

At this point anythings worth a try to get this solved :)

Thanks a million,

I think it's a Dynamo cab, I have one I can measure, see this thread about it :

http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=24392


Actually looking at it again this morning, I think there different (location of coin mech, shape of the sides) but I do believe it's the same as brained's MKII machine.

Thanks again for everyone's help,
Barranger

Also brained,

     What monitor are you putting in yours?  I'm thinking about putting a 19" computer monitor but I'm thinking it may look a little small in there ( the horizontal cavity space is 25 1/2" ).

Thanks,
Barranger

At that size a 25" TV would  be cool...

The only problem with that is I may be able to pick up a 19" monitor cheap, but I'd have to pay full price for the TV.  Unless, of course, anyone knows of a good place near Toronto, Ontario to pick up even a used 25" TV for cheap

Thanks,
Barranger
