Title: Name that cab
Post by: Raven.. on April 02, 2007, 01:14:45 am

Any clues on this cabaret cab?  I think it was a mini Make Trax, but not sure.

I don't think it is a Make Trax. The Williams cabarets (Robotron/Stargate/Make Trax) have a more uniform curve angle. The curve appears to be that same all the way around, whereas the one you show has a much more angled curve towards the middle of the curve. Also, the marquee area appears to be a little taller than the Williams.

Do you have any other pics. The Williams ones have a little indention at the bottom front of the sides as shown here.

OMG  :o

What have they done? Kicked around in the parking place  ???

Are the sides real wood or is it a kind of "wood sticker"?

Actually, it's not in bad shape, just filthy from being in an op's warehouse and then my barn.  It is missing hte bezel glass, but that's all.  The sides are covered in fake woodgrain....lots of cabs were back then.

Glad I'm not the only one with a monitor ruined by SideArms. Why use a white logo that stays in the same place through both the title screen and attract mode? Just asking for trouble.

No idea what the cab is. Any more pictures? Is it really considered a cabaret or is it just a small cab?
