Man that cab looks rough. Hard to imagine how they get that bad (or worse), but kudos for restoring it!

haha...yeah everytime i step up to it, I always give a sigh....makes me wonder what hell it went through to end up the way it did...Luckily I was able to have an empty Ladybug cab that was in better shape...I spent last weekend painting the interior...probey next couple weeks, I'm going to start moving the components from one cab to the other...Kinda dreading it...cuz I have no idea what i'm doing...hahaha

Actually, Wico did  have a version with screws in the leaf.  That's the version of joystick these new knockoffs are copying.  Look in an Elevator Action Manual or any older Taito or Sega Manual and search for the Joystick Assembly part of the manual.

Thanks 2600....that manual will come in handy...Yeap that looks like the joystick...plus the coin door shematics look simualr to the one i'm redoing...

Now i might get chastized for this...but the only modifaction that i will do is probley replace the leaf switches with cherries...Now I dont know why...but for some reason i like cherry switches compared to leaf ones...I ordered the joystick from mike and got 3 happ pushbuttons from Lizardlick ( they were on sale)...
