I diagnosed the sound board problem and fixed it right up, everything is great now.

I put it all back together with a monitor picked up from Norm. It works but the sound is not right.

Side 2 is painted and my wife did some excellent and artistic touch up on the lettering.

Side one is painted. Looks awesome. Side two is masked and ready for next week.

We patched and rebuilt the cabinet as needed. I painted the black black again and we installed the floor mat. We sanded and masked the first side for painting.

After months of nagging from the party guests, I convinced Rick to help me strip the cabinet and begin work on the wood and paint. We cleared it out in one night.

It needs a little fill in spots and some touch up paint and a new floor mat. It will look great.

The internals do not work! Tested the monitor it is dead. It's another G07-CAO that I will be getting fixed.

Test the game. I got it to my basement workshop, plugged it in and turned it on. The game seems to work, the monitor is dead, but I hear the starting sounds and crash sound made after a successful boot.

I wanted the cockpit version of Pole Position. I was emboldened by my previous restoration. What else could go wrong?

The cabinet is solid (B) and the artwork is good (A). I paid $200 for the machine and carted it home.
