Are there any pictures of complete cab? Would like to see how the rest of the art looks. Those Namco cabinet's are beautiful, i like them even more then Taito cabinets.

Btw didn't you promise to post some pic's of your Taito colletion? ;D ;)

Zaccaria Tron in bad shape:

I would love to have one of these, but to restore it is over my skills. :-\
If anybody assumes the restoration for a nice price, please let me know. ;)

Wow...is that exactly the same cabinet as the original ? I.E. would a normal set of artwork fit ?

That's Jon/Centuri from UKVAC. He owns www.centuri.net

I'm sure he would sell to you guys if you picked up or arranged a courier. He's a good guy.

They appear to be none on the internet. I would imagine this is a very rare cabinet. It looks as if it has no front art or side art. I would imagine it just had marquee, bezel and control panel artwork.

Zaccaria Tron in bad shape:

what's zaccaria about that cab? the coin door? the problem is that the entire art package (which you would need) cost TONS of money, so this would be an expensive resto eventually!

Ahhh, the miracle of Google:

http://www.zzzaccaria.com/photos_tron_2005.htm

Look how the backside is straight up compared to the original. Not a pretty sight IMHO...

Artwork mostly looks the same though....Zaccaria built these in license from B/M.

The whole set is available at Quarterarcade, and it worth that money for me. ;)
