So I made a 15-min video overview showing some of the restoration work I did on the R&B machine I purchased that had been severely abused and survived some sort of water damage (possible flood or hurricane). The video quality isn't the greatest, but you get the idea:

Also please note that the video camera somehow makes the LEDs look like they are flickering, but they don't do that in-person. They are nice and solidly-on when lit.

Below is the detailed restoration log to show every penny I spent and everything I did:

Kudos dude. I wish I had the patience for this type of thing.

Congrats! When you are done, will any of the original machine still be there?

Quoted from cait001:

Lol, this is something I had thought about. It would seem as though I'd be building a new machine all said and done if I went the full 9 and bought a NOS playfield board in addition to a new cab. Some of the internal hardware like the wire harness & sockets, some of the PCBs, the coin door + mechs, and the wire ramps would be about the only things left of the original machine.

Yeah, nice work indeed. I also had my eye on the ramp from Norway but you beat me to it.

Thankfully mine isn't so badly beaten up - it sounds like yours was in really terrible shape.
