Tetsujin's Cabs! :D

Post by OldFoo »

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! :D ...



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! :D

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! :D



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:

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!

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.
