Such an awesome cab and great work from you!! 

I think I would have painted the controlpanel or at least would have made some touch up.....I think, not sure though

Very nice result and great restoration report.
I'm really happy that I didn't buy this cab from the Duke, without your skills, it would have been impossible to bring it back to life.
About that credit switch, I found a way that you can hide those wires.

Simply remove the 3 screws that holds that Zaccaria mask with the coin inserts and you can lead the wires behind it.

Thanks for the tip on the wires
Well, at the time I didn't really want both of the DoL AW's since I already had one but with some "arm twisting" I ended up with them. They're in quite poor condition and one is already mostly parted out for parts for Sea Scare, Super Galaxians and this AW. The other one is still otherwise complete but the MTC-90 chassis is broken Since I've completed this one, it'll stay at the back of the queue for now.

Paul.

We always (where possible) move the credit bracket over one of the coin slots and the wires go straight through the slot.

That covers the beutiful Zaccaria sign on the coin door, mine solution is better imho.
