I'm down for one 2L12B if this project is still active. Thanks!

$200 shipped?

Decided to sell this box as I made the difficult decision to sell my NAC and mainly got it to play vertical shmups. I purchased from aclbandit on KLOV who purchased it from aluisi on the neo-geo forums. All controls, video, sound, power goes through the JAMMA connector so it's straight...

Thanks guys! The Ikaruga instruction strip turned out really well. I'll post pics of that installed as well. As I've been messing with the cab the past couple of weeks, I am pretty limited running this vertically with a DC as there are only a handful of games. I may consider the X360 route, but...

Thanks guys! I just finished up the Ikaruga instruction strip. Basically combined the game instructions and "techniques" that are usually displayed separately so it's all in one place. I used the same font throughout where possible for consistency and readability. Both the marquee and strip...

Here's the marquee art I slapped together for Ikaruga. Nothing fancy. Just found a wallpaper, added the "IKARUGA" text above the Japanese lockup and then a Treasure logo in the bottom left corner. I think it looks pretty sweet. I'm now working on an instruction strip with different elements of...

Thanks again for the adapter! So sexy.

Sorry, didn't see you're in Sweden. Hopefully, you can find something equivalent or better. Good luck!

I'm usually anal about those things, but we had just moved and we just had our third kid so I don't have the time or energy. Haha. Just used Rustoleum Automotive Gloss White and Gloss Black spray cans from Home Depot. It had decent reviews so I just went with it. The white looks pretty spot on...

The joysticks are the original Sanwas that came with it. I should replace them. Green and pink OBSF-30s from Funbient. Yellow OBSF-24s from Paradise Arcade. Control Panel Nuts and Bolts from Jasen's Customs.

Custom Cut Marquee I had researched and saw that FrancoB doesn't make these anymore so I decided to get it cut myself. Got specs from Mattosborn on KLOV who has an original. I didn't use the same cap screw placement, but whatevs. It cost about $50 to make. Specs: 13-9/16" high bottom width...

PICS OF PARTIAL RESTORATION: Made a NAC to CPS1/CPS2 Kick Adapter Headers and Pins from Mouser. CPS1 Header: 538-22-01-2087 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Molex/22-01-2087/?qs=%2fha2pyFadujIEQkzoGlzi3aujD88MqmY6P5KSCsv7GA%3d CPS2 Header: 798-DF1B-34DS-2.5RC...

PICS OF GETTING IT UP AND RUNNING:

I had posted about this cab over on KLOV, but figured I'd repost here where it's more relevant. I know candy cabs and NACs are nothing new, so I hope you guys don't mind me sharing. It's my first and only candy cab and I've been having a lot of fun playing with its versatility and coming up with...

Again...so bummed I missed it this year! You're a beast for lugging those big blues back and forth.
