I hope you find one! That tallest part of your order is finding one
with good artwork - unless they were in a private collection from day
1, these Exidy shooters are tough to find with good CPO's and sideart.
I have 4 Cheyennes in my shop, one working, one very near, the other two
in early stages of restoration. If I could combine the best features
of all of them, I'd still have a cabinet with ripped up CPO and good
sideart on only one side. The only replacement artwork I can find is
an inkjet CPO, which I'm hesitant to mess with simply because these big
flat control panels really take a lot of elbow abuse. If you can find
some NOS artwork and a marquee, I believe you can do a simple ROM-swap
with a Cheyenne board and have yourself a Crackshot.

I think all of the exidy 440 shooters are interchangeable.
I just like the Crackshot Cabinet. Second choice would be Cheyenne I think.
I want to get one cabinet and boardsets for all titles so I could play all
of them.
I figure monitors are replaceable, and the boards are interchangeable I
really just want a nice looking cabinet.
I am starting to get a little more open minded to other Exidy 440 cabinets
are long as they are cherry.
