IIRC, your MERCs cabinet was one of about 3 games ever produced that did this. Any chance we can get a pic of the current control panel?
If it's already working perfectly with the intact JAMMA wiring harness, you could easily go the ArcadeVGA/J-Pac route so that you could always reverse it back and run JAMMA boards later on.
It should be a good cab for MAME. It's got a decent-sized control panel that you can easily fit 2 6-button layouts and a trackball in. Having a working 25" monitor isn't a bad start either.

Yes I chose this cab because of its control panel size potential and the nice working monitor.
Here are a few pics if they will help give you an idea of what I am dealing with..

You wouldn't of happened to of bought that around Charlotte NC would you of? I've got a cab just like that and that cp is nice and big. I'll post a pic of mine here in a couple days.

So that is a Jamma PCB there? I wasnt totally sure.
Malenko:
capcom CPS1 (and 2.. maybe even 3) are JAMMA. I used to play that game all the time at the corner store (till they replaced it with dungeons and dragons). Definately a good cab to MAME, I'd do a new 2 player square control panel, god knows its gonna be better then my 2 player CP thats only 24" across
