Scr33n uses metal L brackets , so IMHO its totally not nessesary to apply these bolts seen from a constructive view.

if they are original there, it could be a consideration, but thats up to Screen how genuine he wants to make this replica.

it looks that the original have them there , and also in the sidepanels, so i would say if you leave them out on the sidepanels , i would not put them on the front side

can't see why not even if you put them there just for "decorative" purposes. if you think that they might catch onto things and scrape the sides of the cab next to it, then maybe not as a precaution.

your work is very impressive  :) I strongly suggest you to create a company for selling 'scratch built replica' classics. I'm SURE it will have a certain success here, in Europe... because this era is the one of the REVIVAL, and most of the 'classics' cabinets are now extremely hard to catch, even for the collectors like us, so imagine a simple fan of arcade game  ::) Mission impossible for him  :P
