Quoted from LTG:

A HEP Addams ! Congratulations !
LTG : )

Thanks Lloyd!!! w all the wiz bang out there, it was only fitting to get the old gal up to par ( actually way above par)....it is this machine that hooked me for life in the hobby....can't say enough good things about Chris ( which haven't already been said by others)......

#5 5 years ago

going to bring it home Saturday: some pics....the guy is amazing!!!

Hard to believe the cabinet should look this clean....

I swear...it never hit the pool ( I don't even have one)....

#10 5 years ago
Quoted from pintechev:

Oh my gosh - what a turnaround.

Understatement for sure...the entire game needed the HEP treatment for survival...can't wait to get it home

Lonely no more...beautiful:

I'll get some more tomorrow w lights on to show hardware, etc. Couldn't be happier!!!

#15 5 years ago

A few more w lights on, and I'll leave it at that. Chris is a great guy, and did an unbelievable job on this machine...I can only say if you haven't seen one of his finished restores, put it on you list. ( I take crappy pics, btw...thing is deadly in person)

Quoted from vid1900:

That is hilarious!
"Sure my game is trash. I better put a bunch of LEDs on the back to fix it up nice !"

They did seem to hold it together.....

#23 5 years ago
Quoted from mbwalker:

So did he restore or is this a replacement?
Very nice!

It was a restore of the first game I bought years ago...some of it survived, but cab and playfield we're toast. Chris knew the direction I wanted to go before I'd even tell him.

A true, true asset to our hobby ( and super nice guy)...mark

#24 5 years ago
Quoted from vid1900:

That game is so nice it'll probably serve him breakfast

We decided to skip the food part....there is a bourbon option, I believe..

1 week later
#28 5 years ago
Quoted from jp1985:

This looks great. One question, the plastic piece that is above the graveyard where the wire form connects to the plastic ramp that looks like an archway, where does the piece come from? I never see it on other machines but it looks stock.

That's a custom HEP piece....not sure he sells it, but sure looks like it belongs....how he does these little things to a game that is 26 years old blows me away..the caliber of the restoration really has to be seen in person....
