OP
Quoted from AlexSMendes:

I'm soon to embark on a new adventure: try to build a MB starting with just a plain PF and a restored NBA Fastbreak to serve as a donor (cabinet, boards, display...).
So I'm looking for all kinds of tips here.... what parts are the most difficult to get, where should I pay most attention, etc, etc, etc...
I know it will be a long jorney, so every help will be fully appreciated.... if everything turns out well, I'll soon be on the market for LOTS of parts!!!

The main wiring harness is probably going to be the biggest pain. And of course all the stainless steel laneguides and to some extent the ramps. Everything else should be rather easily findable...

Quoted from lordloss:

For the light boards, did you find used ones or did you recreate the PCBs?

You can usually find most, if not all, light boards at PSPA - they are rather easy to source for WPC-95s.

PSPA is also a good address for special mechs and other metal parts at realistic prices.
