Yea I'm a bit lost here. Who?
he's on KLOV and he is basically recreating/restoring every arcade game ever made.
IT's a bit controversial because he uses new cabinets with old parts.
Oh, hmm yea I wouldn't so much call that restoration, but on the other hand where can one really draw the line from restoration and diy project? As a man who is trying to build his own games and amusement devices i can say on the score I'd lean heavily to there franken machines. Machines put together from machines from 10 different cabinets. While not exactly restorations I'd still call them neat.
But on the other hand restorations as we know them are in a way the flip side of the same coin. New parts with old cabinet, and not new cabinet with old parts.
