I got a message from a friend on the KLOV forums that there was a nice Mario Bros. widebody cabinet about an hour and a half from me, so I gave the guy a call who had it. After a short conversation and a few texts, we agreed on a price and I picked this baby up last night! Here's the pic that I took at 10 PM after I got home:
The guy I picked it up from has been an arcade tech for a local operator for about 20 years. He rebuilt the monitor and capped the sound board- this puppy looks great. Now just a little bit of cosmetic work to be done: new control panel overlay, correct buttons, coin door swap, t-molding and side art.
Both of my boys were playing the next morning in their pajamas before I went off to work. This one is a keeper!
