I found a twin to the ‘FF’ mystery cab at this year’s Northwest Pinball and Arcade Show in Tacoma, WA!

The design of the cabinet and hardware is pretty much identical, and the art is in a similar style, though completely different in content.

Not sure if this one was originally drilled for two buttons or if that was done for Time Pilot ’84. Both positions are labeled on the overlay, like the one I’ve got.

Non-infringing totally not TIE fighters, or in any way related to Star Wars, side art.

Behind glass

Got a little further re-assembling the Midway CT I picked up. The Galaxian glass isn’t pretty, but it’s an original and the price was right.

I laid down some cork from Ace Hardware between the table top and glass to give it an even surface to ride on and keep it from sliding. Need to get some more clips since the cab only came with three, and brace the door side of the table top since it’s warped enough to allow for a worrying amount of flex if you press on the long edge of the glass on that side.

Got some complete original Gorf CT control panels on order from Quarter Arcade. Didn’t cost a whole lot more than the blank repros and saves me a bunch of work and parts gathering.
