I love the LED's you picked, gives the machine some really nice colour, i'm not a fan of plain but i'm sure your plans will work out. i dont think you could sell it with a custom cabinet and backglass well not at the price its worth but its going into ur shop so selling it wont need to thought about!
ahaha yer thats true, the cab was very average to start with and i bought the machine with this exact purpose in mind, the thing is very neat now, lol but yer far from factory ahaha. i know this is not a machine for the purests who like originality, and i apreciate that, i wouldnt do this to my space hawks machine, thats my original one, and i wouldnt put it into a cafe with kids playing with it. so this is a purpose built machine for that reason, one its a work horse and two its needed to fit in with the shops theme,
yer the gloss black will be broken up with big chrome " ROCK" down the side a bit of a spin on the original, to just really bling this bad boy up lol but will also have our shops logo's on it so yer, its not about resale value more playablity and eye catching. really went down the hot rod theme on this chrome and black. but i wont be messing around with playfield or any of that sort of garbage, but i will say everything is reversable. and so if i am sick of it in the shop i can fully restore. cheers guys, after this is out of my house i think my next project will be an original full resto, i havent worked out what sort of machine im going to do yet, nothing has cought my interest as yet, so im on the look out to do simular sort of things i see you guys doing. many of you guys here have enspired me with your projects to do something lieka big resto, something i previously wasnt that interested in doing until ljoining here and seeing what you guys do and the extent you do it. cheers
ps, i bought a sheet of plexiglass and some protector film, to replace this old horid old and scratched up glass, should make it hard for the kids to smash that. lol
