Sutter Cane Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I aleady posted a few pics of my MKII machine on the welcome thread but Here more pictures that shows the process. I bought this machine two years ago. It was a Mortal Kombat II cabinet painted black, converted in Simpson Bowling, then in 60-1. I converted it back to it original form but added a Raspberry Jamma in it. Control panel is not original since I added 6-buttons but I'm really proud of it. It's a mix betwwen MK and MKII. I personally prefer the MKI look over the original MK2 CP. Look more colorful and fit perfectly to the MKII design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coon82 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I'm a big fan of the MK franchise. Like many others, I spent a lot of time and money on these classic games.

Sutter Cane Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 Very nice! Where did you get the artwork from? I got the artwork from MK arcade restore. http://www.mk-arcade-restore.be/ Custom control board vinyl was made by me and printed at a local print shop in my town.

Sutter Cane Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 congratulations on the restoration! is that the IL joystick and buttons? Sorry but what "IL" means? I bought 100% HAPP joysticks and buttons on Ebay. I still got the link : http://www.ebay.ca/itm/100-HAPP-14-PUSH-BUTTONS-2-JOYSTICKS-KILLER-INSTINCT-MORTAL-KOMBAT-ARCADE-KIT-/221185574277?hash=item337fb00585%3Ag%3AKvsAAOxyjK1RDqx~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happ is now suzo happ (China company), and since the company change items aren't made to the same original standards as they once where back in the day, still great sticks but as far as great quality goes it would be the IL sticks to get if you can :) I purchased the same sticks you have in that link and they are still a good stick, work really well.
