PiC#1: Not too much progress today, I'm kind of at a slow part of this restoration now. Doing alot of sanding, adding more bondo,sanding again, etc..Trying to get the cab surface as smooth as glass is the goal.
Pic#2: Fixing damage that I did to the cab when I off loaded the machine from the van. Looks far worse than it is. Will take some work but I should have it smoothed down so you can't see it in no time.
Pic#3: The coin door after several coates of hammered finish black paint. Unfortunately it comes out a really dark gray which is not correct for this machine but with a nice coat of gloss black it now looks wonderful.
Currently I am working on restoring the bezel. I removed a sticker from the Illinois Gaming commision, or something like that but it had a tear under it. It was there I didn't do it.
Pic#4: I have scanned it into my computer, rebuilt the graphic in photoshop which came out really good, Photoshop print on the left bezel on the right. Now I have to get my printer to print it out in the correct colors. Once I get the correct colors I can print it on photo paper and splice the repaired part into the bezel. It will take a little work to get this right.
