1943 project

[arcadefever]

  i just took a few days off, and decide to finally restore my 1943.
i got that cab 3 years ago for $100, but the art of the CP was in very bad shape.

the CP as also 2 big figthing stick, ugly buttons, burn and discolor plexy and a very old monitor.

i bought a new CPO on ebay, bought some plexi ...and this is the result:

OLD 1943:




NEW 1943 



First i change the monitor    sad coz it has been inside sins 1982  :shock: but the burns on the screen are to much during the game play...



that the new monitor,  (THANKS TO MR.MEGALO !!! form Killer cabs for giving me the adress in Miami  :wink: )



now, remove all the old cables and rewire the all thing.... :roll:





for the sticks, i use 2 sanwa and for the buttons, transparent red and blue with led lights...



i also add a lighted button for the credits, and that the cab done  :shock:









that cab look great now !!! i'm going to get the "mike double jamma adapter" and add "1942" by pressing player 1 and 2 at the same time, i will be able to switch between both game....

the perfect old school shooter reunion... 1942&1943 ....

Very nice, but why didn't you fix the control layout?  Player 1 will hit player 2's hand when trying to Bomb with the B button.
