I'm finally getting around to a project that's been waiting for a while. A couple years ago, I picked up a decent player's Bad Cats project with a backbox painted with original art and a body that had been rattlecanned solid orange. I got it working, and ordered plastics and a new CPR playfield. Thanks to RustyLizard, I managed to find a cabinet painted with the original artwork in pretty good shape! It seemed like fate that I would have a decent backbox but incorrect cabinet, and he should have a nice lower cabinet right around the same time.

I drove about 12 hours each way (which seems like madness) over the course of a weekend to grab it. I was waiting for the repro ramps to be done so I could do a full (half-assed) restoration all at once, but decided I needed the space from the cabinet freed up tonight.

So here's where I am
