Didn&#8217;t think much of it at the time, as finding the parts to change it back would be difficult.<\/p>\n<p>So when I started working for him last year I noted the cabinet again.   Still&#8230;without the rest of the guts, especially the joysticks and CP, it was just a cabinet.<\/p>\n<p>During a massive cleanup of the shop I was organizing the PCBs taken from conversions.  One box in particular intrigued me&#8230;it said &#8220;Xenophobe: PCB, Instruction Book, Marquee, Joysticks and Wiring Harness&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Could it be?  Open it up&#8230;WOW!

Take one from a junk cab out back.<\/p>\n<p>Rip off the Mortal Kombat control panel.<\/p>\n<p>Turns out someone made a new wooded CP underneath.  I&#8217;ll have to route out certain areas to get the Xenophobe CP back in place.<\/p>\n<p>The original wiring harness was cut, then wired into the JAMMA for MK.  Spliced it back together.<\/p>\n<p>The monitor worked for about five minutes, then died.  I have to pull it out and troubleshoot.<\/p>\n<p>Between the cabinet body and monitor there is a pedestal.  It has a metal plate with the instructions.  Someone painted over it.  I uncovered the art just recently.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\".\/images\/xeno-1.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Really should have gotten some pictures of this before I started work on it.
