- Epic driving cockpit cabinet! Probably the best on the board IMO. The documentation is wonderful, and his attention to details and driving "feel" is commendable.

hahaha, javeryh called it! He should have bought a lottery ticket that day. :)
***Edit: Also wanted to add a few more to the HoF.
Bombjack bartop - by psychotech
Great execution. Unique bartop shape, (love the "grinning" marquee), swappable CP...just awesome all together.
Mystery Machine - by shrunkenmaster
It's bright, it's cheerful, the whole theme was solidified well...and who doesn't like scooby doo?!
Galaxian Mame Conversion - by csa3d
I couldn't forget about this one. An oldie, but greatie. Part restore, part upgrade, rotating monitor with great documentation...the finished pics of it aren't there anymore, though this was an old thread.
A-kab - by Zobeid
Another awesome rotating monitor build (link: the rotavator explained).
Laser Multi Touch Projection Cocktail Table - by rdagger
The title says it all. This thing was so awesome. More documentation can be found here
Epyx:
All of my favourite have been named so far...Taxi Cab, Onds, Martijn's, Ryglore's, DrVenture's, Bella's, Mystery Machine, Mountains, Knievel's (pick one!), leapinlews, Bender's and so many more that may be copies or knock offs but are "best of class" in that respect: Javeryh's DK build, Opt2not's cocktail and so many more!

+1 I thought Kurts Pinball Cab http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=99924.80 should be nominated, I know there are some other great virtual pinball machines out there but this is the one that impressed me in particular - well documented and great attention to detail
and my own ditto to previously mentioned Pixelhugger's awesome Mission Control for it's furniture quality elegance
There's one cab though that if I had to nominate a cab that is the best representation of what BYOAC is all about, a cab that screams pure arcade atmosphere and captures the nostalgia of the era yet is fresh and new it's your Aliens cab dude. Sure, I'm slightly biased, but it's your effort and experience learned through doing, that brought it to life.
Usul:
isn't Ghost in the Machine also an obvious choice?

“Doc Like” Modular Panels using Velcro for easier fabrication
Side Lit Etched Acrylic CP Art
Lighted Controls (So you know they are Plugged in!)
Laser Etched Acrylic Marquee with Luminglass Accent
Lighted “T-molding”
--> awesome!

Although this is an unfinished build, this one when complete will be a prime candidate. Wood working skills are phenomenal....
