    I need to replace the metallic logo on the front to the console. It was heavily rusted so I had to remove it. Any ways of getting a new one?

    1. Get an Atari logo in Illustrator format and get a printer to cut you a foil sticker.

    2. Get an original front panel / decal from an atari dealer such as B & C or Best Electronics (I didn't look to see if they still carry them).

    3. Get a broken console with a decent case and do a transplant.

    Yeah I'm gonna have to do the 3rd option from what I've heard on AtariAge.

    LOL, if you've asked on AA and that's the conclusion they gave, then that's pretty much gospel ;-) You could contact B & C and Best and see if they have either the decals or some broken consoles (I remember one of them used to buy broken ones for a few dollars a piece).
