Just picked up this Paragon...a rare/natural beauty. Original unfaded cabinet, lockdown bar and coin box don't have a scratch on them, back glass is perfect. PF has no mylar around the slings and has no wear. The pinball gods were looking out for me this holiday

And Centaur...way ahead of this time...still one of my favorites.

Quoted from blownfuse:

Here are some of the System 80's I have set up at the moment.

Those are some really cool/unique titles! One day I need to pickup a Gottlieb...always liked the feel of their drops.

That Paragon looks sweet! If you get a chance, post a pic of the PF.

Here ya go. For some reason, if I attach 2 photos, I get some error message about not having any content. When I attach one, it seems to work. Odd.

I believe this Paragon was shortly routed, then moved to someone's home, then moved to a climate controlled warehouse for most of it's life. I only did some minor cleaning/waxing/polishing, put new rubbers on, replaced a bunch of lights and several sockets, flattened some warped plastics, and put new bumper caps on (though the originals looked quite good). That's it. Can't really see it in the pics, but the PF still has a nice sheen...colors are gorgeous. Most importantly, it really plays awesome. Also picked up a NOS PF, but will likely never use it in this machine (the PF is just too nice to mess with).

+1 that machine look great!
anymore close snapshot of that PF?

Thanks a lot for the compliments! I've had it for a couple weeks now, and still can't get over how beautiful it is. Really got lucky with this one.

I can go take another closeup of the PF...I still have the glass off.

Here's an inside shot. Didn't do any cleaning under the PF...only vacuumed the bottom of the cabinet. Was amazed all the dust/dirt came right up. Could probably use "mean green" cleaner to make it sparkle even more, but didn't really see the point. Almost no corrosion anywhere on the pin.
