whenever i received my stern JPH PIN, it had a little dent on the underside of the cabinet, so the distributor sent in a pic to stern and i completely forgot about it as you couldnt even see it. more than a year later, a new JP empty bottom cab is now sitting in my garage. I don't even have the game anymore.
what should I do with it, make a virtual pin? sell it? i would think there would be limited interest.
Quoted from snakesnsparklers:Make it into a downhill derby racer.
I actually like this idea 
You should update your collection! Still shows you have a JPH!
Offer it locally or contact the buyer of your JPH and see if they want the replacement cab, out of the kindness of your heart! 
Put it up for sale, see what offers you get.. someone may actually need to replace his, could make it into a virtual game, etc.

Yup, if you don't want it, sell it. Someone else can probably find a use for it.
My buddy got a free Sega Goldeneye cabinet about 6 months ago. He plans on dropping his extra populated Galaxy playfield in and building a Frankenstein pin.
I know another guy locally that is looking for a modern Stern Cabinet to build a Seawitch with.
Offer it up for cheap or free and there will be interest.

Based on the number of carguments around here pinball machines are basically cars anyway. I support this idea.

I have an empty cab stored upright in my garage that’s used to store folded moving blankets for pin pickups.
It also has two EM heads on top of it for parts as needed.

What?! This is all wrong!
A Galaxy wouldn’t really work in a Sega cabinet and a Modern Stern shouldn’t fit a Seawitch... your buddy is gonna have a tough time adjusting everything to fit properly

I think you underestimate this community. Galaxy guy likes the idea of building a pin from free parts.
Seawitch guy wants to build a Seawitch in the style of a Stern Beatles.
You just make it work.
