It’s amazing when you start the tear down and you start seeing all that needs to be done... and how it’s like 100 times more than you thought. It’s a shame when you see water damage or neglect (natural causes aside).
When I did my Indy I decided I wasn’t going to keep or clean anything that was commonly available. It cost a bit more but is worth it when doing a high end restoration. So I saved my elbow grease for the unobtainium stuff. I could have justified a cabinet purchase but I didn’t have any real water damage or warping. The new cabinet is going to be great...it makes the finished product so crisp. Creatch is such an awesome looking game when it’s shiny new!
Those stainless mechs are such a pain to clean and resurface... so many hard to reach spots and tabs and crap in the way.
Looks great!
Quoted from Soulrider911:Here is some Creature eye candy. SO EXCITED to finally be able to use this amazing PPS NOS playfield done by Ron Kruzman. It has been sitting under my bed for about 2 years.
