I would rebuild the cabinet on this title. I just finished rebuilding a brand new cab for my Fast Draw which was is in similar condition.I think the cab was in some kind of flood and was rotted and mouldy. I know making a custom cab from scratch is a lot of work and very expensive but for me its worth it. I have 2 other machines in the line up for re-cab as well. I'm ready for painting. Whatever you do don't scrap it, I will take it and re-cab it.
Quoted from jrpinball:That's a lot of work, but some people have that woodworking knack. Having all the tools and equipment sure helps too.
If you enjoy woodworking and pinball then its a great match because you can upgrade the cab as you see fit. In my case I used solid oak and Maple trims throughout, 3/4" oak plywood floor and upgraded leg bolt plates. You can save a few hundred without those upgrades but labour is still the same. I just hate seeing a pin go to the scrap yard.
