Guys, this is my first post here, however I've an active account a long time, so until now I've just read the entries.

As I just finished my complete restoration of a mid 90's Neo-Geo MVS cab after more than 20 months, I thought share something about the project - first here's some before-after pics.

I live in Hungary, Budapest and I've dedicated a full restoration blog to this beauty but the real thing is here: a before-after comparison :)

trivia: This cab is a Gavin-style officially licensed SNK Neo-Geo MVS machine from 1994 (originally built to the European market at Videoton company in Szekesfehervar, Hungary). I tried to be authentic and keep the original format, so tried to keep everything which works, and trying to fix what is broken. Of course cab got a big renovation on woody parts, lights, total recabling, electrics, controls, etc... and I upgraded the control panel overlay graphics, headglass and a sideart, but at inside - everything else is purely & natively Neo-Geo nmanufactured.

Thanks for looking.

Gotta say that's one slick looking machine. I've seen them in holland, but this takes it to another level. Nice work!

The only quirk is the use of 6 buttons. Doesn't that confuse people trying to play neo geo?
