Hi Folks, my name is Adam and am a new member here and havent been into arcade ownership too long.

I mainly post on www.arcadeotaku.com so some of you may have already seen these!

...

Here are my cabs:

First up is my Namco System 22 Ridge Racer full sit down cabs.

I have 2 of these amd also have the following games to play on them...

Ridge Racer

Ridge Racer 2

Rave Racer

Ace Driver

I love it!

Also have a Sega New Astro City. I mainly use this for Mr Driller G!

And lastly I am current just finishing of restoring a Universal Naomi into a sitdown NNC with a second cab in the making with another universal which might be a Net City sit down and in tate.

I have also added a Tri Sync monitor so I can eventually make it a JAMMA cab aswell!

Unfortuanlty I cant afford all the great games on the Naomi hardware so I have installed Dreamcasts for the next best thing as I own many of the great titles alread along with the DC hardware.

Here the build up of the Naomi:

I took this old Naomi:

Cleaned it:

Painted it:

Chopped it down and started building it:

(note - the monitor plastics show how yellow this was originally before I painted it!!

)

New Sanwa JLF sticks , NNC decals (cheers Sega Shed!) and some spanky Sanwa buttons in std NNC colours:

Playtest:

Chopped down the leg covers last night and will be sortin them and other finishing items on the cab this weekend.

Also have another cab that I am building (Naomi) so cant wait to get stuck into that aswell!

Cheers

Adam

Hi Adam,

Awesome stuff you've got there. Nice choice of cabs also. Especially the Sega stuff. I've also been following your Naomi restoration on AO already.

I still got all the work ahead of me. Anyways, Welcome!

Oh oh.. I think I have just lost control over most of my bodily functions. This is just amazing..

I wish I:

A. was the one owning these (especially the driving cabs.. so sweet..)

B. had the available space to put these cabs in

C. had a wife that would understand

D. had the skills to paint plastics like you painted them

one word: respect.
