Identify this Cab

<< < (3/6) > >>

It looks like a Phoenix.  Except now that I look at mine the front is straight on a Phoenix.  Here is a pic of a white one from klov.

 ??? Wow what a puzzler. It definitely has a classic "familiar" shape. The top is very much like Stern cabinets (Berzerk) but Stern did not use coin doors like that, and the bottoms of their cabs were different (not to mention, many had a front door for accessing the circuit board).

Next, the shape is VERY much like Sega/Gremlin games (Astro Blaster, Frogger, Digger, etc) http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=7583 but again, they didn't use that kind of coin door.

I wouldn't call that coin door a "Midway" coin door unless it actually has their logo plaque on it. Midway just used coin doors from a seperate supplier.

I'll tell you who did make that shape of cab with that kind of coin door though... A little company that used to operate up here in Ottawa making generics.

Does the marquee have marquee brackets or is it fitted into "slots" in the wood?

SOmetimes coin doors get swapped around, it isn't COMMON, but it does happen.

The shape near the bottom of his also looks like it's been in three inches of water.

Yes there does seem to be some water damage.  Anyone have pointers/site/thread on working with water damaged wood?  It looks worse in the pic then in real life...course once I start working with it, it might just turn to mummy dust...

Your right, it does look alot like Phoenix or maybe another Centuri cab.

It uses brackets.  I have yet to remove the marquee to see if it has slots...

It's the same style.  The picture isn't that great, it could have been painted over, or completely removed altogether.
