My find of the day!

<< < (4/6) > >>

So just out of curiosity, where are you guys finding sub-$100 cabs?

southpaw13:
I always watch e-bay arcade cabinets and put in an advance search for items within 200 miles of my zip.  Every once in a while, someone will post a local pickup only and not know exactly what they have.  I have picked up a Frogger, Robotron, and now Stargate for under $100.  You have to be patient...
There are other ways also, but this one works for me...

Here's an update, maybe it will be done next weekend!  Side art from Arcadeshop Amusements.  (Yes I know the color is wrong in the front, but it looks a ton better 8)

Efin SWEET man!

APFelon:
Formica stinks. The cabs I have pulled formica off of usually have intentional deep gouges in the artwork to make the formica stick better. So not only do you have to repaint, but you have to sand the sides like crazy.

My Mini-Golf is a Pac conversion. Under the formica, it looked as though someone took a heavy screwdriver to the sides.

Good luck, and happy sanding!
