Hi everyone, I’m mostly a vid arcade collector, and this is only my fourth pin I’ve ever worked on, so still relatively new here with pins, but I wanted to post some pics as I work through this one.
I found this game on OfferUp in Eastern Washington, sitting in the loft of a barn for many years in a small farming town called Royal City. Cab was totally faded and paint chipping from years of hot/cold in non-climate controlled environment. Probably a lot of people would have just parted this out, but the saving grace for it is a Mylar playfield protector that’s kept the paint underneath from cracking and kept wear down to a minimum.
I’m starting with the cabinet body, then repairing the playfield, and then moving on to the electronics.
I’ve been staring at it for a year and a half in my garage, scared to get started, first time stenciling, first time removing Mylar, first time clear coating. Finally got motivated. Here are some pics of the cab before.
