Recovered this pin from an operator’s garage about a year ago and spent sometime on and off fixing the mechanical issues. Really got started on the cabinet restore about two months ago. I enjoy reading other restore treads and thought I’d share my first attempt. There are a lot of better examples out there and the finished product isn't perfect, but it is perfect for me.
I wasn't going for ‘back to stock’ condition, but wanted to try a few different things...giving it the best shot I could.
Thanks to the folks here on pinside that have posted their restore examples, tips, and tricks. Couldn't have done it without this place.

Here’s a quick before and after pic if you don’t want to scroll the entire post. By the time I took the after photo, I had a better cell phone , but it’s still crappy camera...my apologies for the poor quality photos:

When I brought it home there was no dmd, no sound, and very few things were working, but the playfield was in good shape. I had done some shop jobs and minor restorations, but not a complete top to bottom job before. It seemed like a daunting task, but I wanted to give it a try. This was staying in my collection and I was willing to put everything I’ve learn on pinside into action.

Playfield.jpg
The playfield needed a deep cleaning, the grime under the ramp hadn’t been touched in twenty years.
Upper-RT-Playfield.jpg
Nice shine after some elbow grease, like others have said...the dirt protected the playfield.

Before-1.5-902.jpg
Standard faded cab, but what you can’t see is the craved in graffiti on the black portion.

Before-1-48.jpg
Looks like both sides were looking out an all glass window at some point..

Before-2-866.jpg
Header shot, beat-up bad..lots of random knife cuts, not even graffiti.

Before-3.0-163.jpg
The front looked really rough, but it gets much worse than you see here.

Before-3.1-479.jpg
With the operator’s lock bar removed, the real damaged is exposed.
Maybe someone tried to pry it open at some point, but that is one monster hole.

Before-4-51.jpg
Left side fairly worked over also, chipped sides and lock bar holes.

Before-5-646.jpg

Backside of the “Monster Hole”

Before-6.0-588.jpg
Ouch, with the coin door assembly removed...the full extent can be seen.

Before-6.2.1-907.jpg
That thin sliver of wood is about the size of a toothpick, not much to work with.

Before-7.0-124.jpg
After all the years of trash had been cleaned out, it’s still far from descent.

Before-7.1-99.jpg
Thought it could be sanded clean, but later the stains proved too much.

Before-8.1-426.jpg
Front left side of the cab had some serious separation.

During-0.jpg
Time to start the real work, had to be careful stripping around the Hole.

During-1.jpg
Starting to layer-up the hole with bondo, think it took around five or six layers to finish.
Yea, ugly now...but that’s why sanded paper is around.

During-2.jpg
Frontside getting more layers of bondo and sanding.

During-7.jpg

During-3.jpg
Starting to strip the side

During-4.jpg
Wood glue and clamping for the left side separation and more layers of bondo.

During-5.jpg

During-6.jpg
Side completely sanded, but the graffiti was so deep, that area needed bondo also.
The top section also had some weird one inch channel carved into it, not sure why.

During-8.jpg
At least the bottom sanded clean, at this point best part of the cab..

During-10.jpg
Bondo, sanding, bondo, sanding, bondo, sanding

During-11.jpg
The inside was scratched up pretty bad, again bondo and orbital sander time.

During-12.jpg
Filled in the bizarre one inch channel carved into the topside.

During-13.jpg
That Hole is starting to look like it should.

During-15.jpg
Almost every corner of this cab and header needed to be re-shaped.

During-16.jpg

Ghetto paint room, made with tarps and blue painters tape.

During-19.jpg
Since the bottom was stained badly, the orbital sander didn’t clean it to well.
Decided to go with painting it a similar shade of red as the Getaway logo.

During-22.jpg
That Monster Hole is looking good after a paint job or should I say looking gone.

During-23.jpg

During-24.jpg
Rookie mistake of not sanding the top section all the way smooth at first.
It’s ultimately covered by the backbox, unless it’s folded down...lesson learned.

During-27.jpg
The back came out pretty good, although still waiting for some parts.

During-30.jpg
Backside of the hole complete. The old problem area would have to be pointed out to be noticed.

During-31.jpg
Front decal on, bottom part of the decal had the lower “G” cut off due to aligning the gear shifter.

During-32.jpg
Sides are done and the separated left front has sealed up nicely.

During-33.jpg
Glass getting a test fit with the rails.

During-34.jpg
During-35.jpg
Shiny stuff starting to go in.

During-36.jpg
Time for the cabinet ground braid.

During-37.jpg
Good day when I picked up parts from the powder coater.

During-38.jpg
OK, this is where my obsessive compulsive side kicked in and I went a little crazy.
I hate seeing exposed wires, so my goal was to sleeve everything I could (within reason).

During-39.jpg
Not the cleanest of cable management jobs, but the coin door wiring assembly done.

During-40.jpg
The cab is near 100%, now onto that sorry header in the background.

During-41.jpg

During-43.jpg
The back had some particle board corrosion in spots that needed more sanding than normal.

During-45.jpg
Not just a dented corner here, but a nice chunk taken out. Also a good angle to see that particle board corrosion on the back side.

During-46.jpg

During-47.jpg
Gratuitous dog chill’n photo.

During-48.jpg
Wood was cracking badly on the topside of the backbox. Bondo to the rescue again.

During-49.jpg
Ugh, Back to molding corners again.

During-53.jpg
Backbox all prepped and ready for paint.

Something a little unconventional I wanted to try with the backbox door.

During-57.jpg

During-58.jpg

During-59.jpg
The OCD kicked in again and I couldn’t put this back in without trying an experiment.

During-60.jpg
After a time consuming few hundred passes over a buffer, got these results.
Still had to polish it with Mother’s, but it was good enough for my daughter to take this picture.

During-61.jpg

During-62.jpg
Another thing I wanted to try was using these nylon stand-offs that were picked-up at the local hardware store.

During-63.jpg
Figured by mounting it this way would give it a more Industrial look, plus give more space to route wires if needed.

During-64.jpg
Backbox near complete, OCD cable management (routed wires & sleeved ribbon cables).

During-65.0.jpg
Coin door assembly installed.
During-65.5.jpg

During-66.0.jpg
Cabinet mostly complete, time to put the backbox on and playfield in.

During-66.3.jpg
During-66.4.jpg
Backbox all wired and powered up.

Decent paint job in back but it’s a little bare, still need the WPC warning…got a pm back from Matt and will be ordering a set this week.

There’s still a little work to finish up, but figured it was done enough to post this thread. If you made it all the way through, thanks for taking the time to read. There are a lot of non-pinball folks that will see and play this machine, but very few will understand the work that went into it like you guys can.
During-76-380.jpg

Thanks guys, probably not the best title to put this much work into...but worth it to me in the end.
The decal job was the easiest part with no paint to color match and nothing to line-up on the corners.

Agreed, think it came out better than expected. I'd like to take the credit for the idea, but I remember seeing it on another restore...might have even been a Getaway, but can't find the thread or pics anymore to give a nod to the right person.

Here's the color used: Home Depot - Rustoleum Heritage Red (Satin)

Thanks again everyone, it was a ton of work and lost count of the hours. Although, a lot of it was spent just staring at things, lol. It could have been done in a month, but took me a few weeks longer with the buffing of parts and cable sleeveing. I've got a few more things to complete, like the rear of the backbox (hopefully within the next month) and might get the playfield cc'd (within the next year). For now, it's got a playfield protector on it...which is a good upgrade from nothing, but would prefer a clearcoat.

Yea, nice set-up and great pricing...upgrading these were on my to do list also.
Any special wiring issues to consider? Also, where'd you mount the L-Pad attenuator?
