Great stuff, I especially love seeing old metal parts being brought back to like-new condition, and in this case the fibre glass parts too. Well done!

The last bits to go back on were the body panels and seat.

It's been a fun one this has.






Just an update of the last few jobs that I have been waiting on to finish it.

A new above coin door plexi from Olly at Arcade Art Shop.

New sound amp fitted to the power board.

And can I just thank John Bennett for doing brilliant UKVac reproductions of the motor drive, sound amp and brake lamp control PCBs for the OutRun DLXs.
Without his work, it would neither move, sound or flash it's brake lights the way they always did.

I got the OutRun DLX PCB back from it's yearly rest at RetroClinic a few weeks back.

Plenty more chips playing up, but it's back on song now...

I somehow missed this.

Congrats on such a relentless effort and your attention to detail, you've done a first class job, well done.

Nice job John Bennett also, the hobby certainly needs guys like you.

Superb stuff!

*Edit - Mark at retroclinic also, that guy does a job and a half*

I love looking at these restorations, very satisfying to see the before and after pictures and it being restored to its formal glory. This is a truly a great piece of work, well done on achieving perfection for the perfect arcade machine! I'd love to get mine looking like that. I can at least get the new side art though, thanks for sharing that link to Arcade Art Repo
