Do you have an EPROM programmer? If you can dump a ROM, you can use MAME's romident function to figure out what it is. The MAME romset usually names the files after the ID and position on the board, so you can often figure it out by grepping the source for the text on the sticker over the EPROM window. Lastly, if there are identifying numbers on the boards anywhere, you can Google those and sometimes get a hit.

I work with computers a lot so I have a whole workstation dedicated to reading and burning chips. It's in storage at the moment though but once I get a chance I'll pull it out again as a few people have asked for dumping it for the MAME folks.
I started to clue in that at some point the cabinet was painted because some scuffs and chips show the white underneath however I have no idea how to strip the paint off with ruining the decals.
