Berzerk Cosmetic Restoration Phase 1

[pmpddytim]

After I got my Berzerk cab up and running I decided it was time to start on some cosmetic work.

 

This weekend I:

 

Cleaned and painted the metal pieces that hold the marquee.

Cleaned the marquee

Cleaned and painted metal speaker cover.

Cleaned and painted coin door.

Removed rust from coin bezel

Removed rust from coin return door.

Bleaced plastic coin door inserts.

Got new lock for coin door.

Replaced light bulbs in coin door.

Painted sliding PCB door.

Got new hardware (nuts, bolts etc.) for coin door, marquee holders,and speaker cover.

Ordered new Stern decal for coin door.

Removed big metal bar that was in front of the coin door and filled the large hole it left with a carriage bolt.

 

Although I removed the rust from the metal coin bezel it is still rather pitted and when you look close it is not very attractive. I was thinking of having it chromed but I don't know, I want to keep it as original as possible.

 

Also I added a momentary switch inside the coin door so I don't have to use quarters anymore.

 

The next step will be the control panel and T-molding. For the control panel I want to get new buttons, and a new Wico leaf-switch joystick. And if I could find a nice contol panel overlay that would be fantastic.
