A converted Williams cocktail.

Good price too!

"HOLY CRAP" I have been building a cocktail for about six months and it looks just like that one but with an all glass top. 

I have never even seen that style before. I thought I came up with it. (slightly angled t-shirt with curved top samwiching the CPs. I dint remember seeing it in any of the examples pages.

It could be a Moon Patrol too?

Definately a Williams though.

I built a copy of one and it has a multi Williams layout.

Keep an eye on that auction.
You could sell the boardset for quite a bit.

They are a really nice style cabinet.
I like how the control panels are full size

And the screen is horizontal too.
It fits a 20" Arcade screen in there snuggly but for a 19" PC monitor you would need to make adjustments to sizes so be wary of that. You could use a 20" TV though.

I got the plans from www.jakobud.com

It is a Robotron Cocktail. Kinda.

Good luck!
