How far along are you?
It's going to be a tight fit, since the Pac-Man cabinet comes down to the sides of the control panel, and it isn't as wide as some dedicated two-player games. One joystick with a six button setup will fit pretty easily, though.
The control panel is metal. If you don't mind drilling the holes yourself, you can get a replacement blank for about $25. You might be able to build something from MDF, but metal is going to fit better and look nicer. You can also get replacement vinyl overlays for the control panel when you're done to give it a clean look.
When I redid my Street Fighter III cabinet last year, I used this kit from Amazon. It has two bat joysticks and 14 buttons, in standard SF colors. If you'd rather keep the red ball-top joysticks for authenticity, I think they have a kit with them as well.
Pac-Man isn't a JAMMA cabinet, so you're going to need an adapter before you can put a Multicade board on it.
If you don't have a board for it yet, Pandora's Box is a pretty good JAMMA Multicade with about a thousand games on it.
Of course, if you decide to scrap the whole thing and build a new cabinet out of MDF that has all the bells and whistles you want, I'd be happy to pick your cabinet up and turn it back into a Pac-Man... :)
