In this forum thread I'll upload the process of restoration my Sega TouringCar cabinet I hope like you.
-Restoration Daytona steering wheel:After making a successful test of hacking of steering wheel, the first thing I did was to clean the steering wheel and remove the rust that it had.
Here I leave the state when I arrived:
I started by removing all the rust with the help of a wire brush and in the most difficult places I used a Dremel tool with a brush:
You can see in the picture below before of brushing and after brushing:
Then I sanded the complete surface with a sandpaper of grit 400 and I painted with spray of color Chrom Silver.Only I gave a layer because is hidden inside the cabinet simulator and it,s the result:
Also I cleaned the two belts with a cloth dipped in water before mounting the metal chassis of the wheel.
Now it,s like new:
-Restoration of top part:Billboard and support of power supply,amplyfier ,etc.:Like the billboard and marquee were in good conditions only I cleaned the dust of them:
Finally it is shiny:
The support of power supply ,amplifier etc,was very dirty:
I cleaned the support of wood and inside of three metal parts, two sides and a front more the door.
The outside metalic part was in good condition and only I cleaned:
But the inside was very dirty and I had to printed with spray paint(Metalic Grey)the three parts:
The resulted is this:
The metalic door was very rusted:
A part of metalic door sand it and other part without sand:
And I had to sanded and also printed it:
Complete Pedals Restauration:When I bought the machine the pedals had this aspect:
First I disassembled the pedals:
And the other base under of pedals:
I cleaned, removed all the rust and and then I painted it:
After I began with the other base of pedals:
I did the process itself like the other base.This is the resulted:
Also I painted the pedals protection:
And also I painted the screws of pedals base:
After I dissambled the two pedals,first the brake pedal:
And then the accelerator pedal:
Then I bought a metal plate slip in Leroy Merlin:
I cut two pieces of sheet metal with the shape of the pedals and I sticked to the surface of the pedals:
Then I mounted all parts of pedals in the base:
The last I did went the support of the feet.I remove the part of rubber:
And I placed two pieces of sheet metal like in the pedals:
At the end the complete resulted it,s this:
-Restauration of blue support and glass mask:The glass mask had rests of the sticker:
And I cleaned with hot water.
Also the botton blue support was a little rusty and some parts had no paint:
And I painted with blue spray:
At the end this it,s the resulted:
-Adjust of Daytona Steering Wheel in the cabinet:It has been a hard work but at the end I have get.
First this was the aspect of support of Original steering wheel:
I removed with a grinder all supports of wires:
And then I painted:
After I use four strong squadrons like this to hold it:
Before I marked and cutted a part of wood to move out the full steering wheel because needed to get a little out the axle:
After I put two little squadrons to avoid tipping up of support when I put the steering wheel at the front:
But after to do all this the axle need exit more out:
I had to cut a partof body of Steering wheel because has a right angle and the control panel and the blue support are in chamfer:
Also I had to cut the part metalic of buttons and the paret metalic of gear lever.The rest of chasis had to remove:
At the end It adjusted perfectly:
The body of Steering wheel is lash down with two screws:
-Fit the Led Monitor of 39 inches in the cabinet:This is the hole of screen:
Like the LED monitor would not fit in the hole I had to cut the parts marked in red color:
I disconnected the two tweeters of the two side tables:
Here the two tables to cut:
After I did a template to get the perfect position of Led monitor:
Also I had to cut a part of the base because the monitor would not fit:
I placed a backing in the middle of the base and in the sides of the base:
Then I used these squadrons to attach the monitor to the cabinet:
And I also used two pieces of wood to fit the Led monitor:
Also I put in the base masking tape to avoid to the sawdust it comes off:
At the end it fitted the Led Monitor of this way in the cabinet:
And this is the final resulted:
-Restoration of coin tower:This was the aspect of coin tower:
This was the aspect of the doors of coin tower before of paint:
And this after of paint them:
And also painted the tower:
This is the coin :
And the box the coin:
Then remove the coin slot and did a system using a switch to give credits only with introduce the coins:
At the end the complete resulted after of put the two yellow locks:
-Restoration of Panel:The panel of Sega Touring cabinet had this aspect:
I repaired all cigarrete burns with poliester mastic that it,s used to repair the bodywork of the cars:
After I connected the wires of buttoms and gear lever:
Then I put Vinilo Carbono 4D Brillo 80x152cm and sticked in the panel.I can´t stick of a piece because the panel had a lot curves and went imposible.Only I could stick it by parts but not differ much near joints.At the end I like the resulted,It,s see pretty well of near:
If anyone want buy that vinilo,it,s cheap and he has a quality very nice.
I bought this Vinilo Carbono 4D Brillo 60x152cm by 23,60 shipping included:
http://www.vinilopasion.com/productos/vinilo-carbono-4d-brillo-60x152cmI think to if I had had a air heater maybe I could had put all the vinilo of a piece but I doubt because the panel had enough curves.
-Put secuencial change in the cabinet: I have adapted the secuencial change of a Sega Grand Prix steering wheel to my sega TouringCar this:
This the front part:
And this back part:
And this side face:
This it,s the complete secuencial change with all parts:
Then I painted with yellow spray the two parts yellow and with spray black metalic the other part:
Like I only had 7 cm between the steering wheel and the panel,I had to remove the last piece black of secuencial change because doens´t enter:
I had to do a new piece with a piece of sheet with this form.Also I had to do a hole more big with a pallet drill of 22mm in the secuencial change because the hole was more small that the axis of steering wheel:
Then I used a cheet to do the base of buttoms:
The buttoms led have five connections + and - of led buttom then NO to + of buttom and C to - of buttom.The other connection NC doesn´t use:
Then I bought a set of males of Metrica 6(drill of 5mm)to screw the two screws to the steering wheel:
At the end the resulted had been this:
-Restoration complete of the seat:The aspect of base of seat was this:
The base was very rusted:
I removed the rust with a drill and a wire brush:
And then I painted:
And Also I put a metallic plate:
After I unmounted the first base:
I also removed the rust:
And I painted it:
After I did process itself with the second metallic base taht hold the side rails of seat:
Under of seat is the subwoofer:
Then I unmounted the rear seatback:
The rear seatback was hold with six clamps:
Also in the rear seatback was the two speakers,left and right:
This went the paint cabin improvised:
And these the materials that I used more aguaplash paste that doens´t appears in the next image:
First I began with the seat, giving aguaplash paste to all damages:
After I gave white sealer primer to all the seat for palster after the yellow paint:
And then I painted giving two hands of yello paint in spray and after of dry the paint I gave other two hands of transparent varnish.
I did the process itself with the seatback:
-Creation of base of seat:I did a base for the seat because it hadn´t.
I used a metal platesto join the five parts that make up the base of seat:
I had to go adapting the metal plates to the inclination of each part:
After I covered the metal paltes with a layer of aguaplash plaste and I add two woods joined with two metal plates to the part of front:
Then I buy by 6 euros this piece of polipiel:
And this piece of foam also by 6 euros:
I holded a piece of foam with size itself that the base of seat:
Then I hissed the edges:
And holded other piece of foam a bit more small for to centre of seat:
After I used a manual staplerat stapling all around the end the aspect of upholstered seat is this:
Like yet was a bit hard when I sit down I put a piece of foam more under the base in the back and now it,s very comfortable:
Also like as I remained various parts of the metal plate I put them on the base:
At the end the final resulted it,s this:
