butfound out that casino operators had a terrible time turning
the machines around to get the take. So they reengineered the
cabinet and rehashed the mechanism to have it open from the
front to make it easier.
So you're looking for a Space "Front Open" mechanism

got the PR1MAD0NNA model just about any Space "Front
Open" Wt mechanism will work.

"late" machine, and is theoretically illegal in some states.

mechanismfor sale or at auctions. We can suggest two possible
sources, both COIN SLOT advertisers:
