Ok all, so that I don't get ran off Pinside on a rail by asking an absurd amount for this one, what's a restored SBM worth...
Considering it was restored by an amateur, me, there are plenty of faults but it's gone through quite the transformation.
If you did not follow the restore thread, here is the cliffs notes version:
Completely disassembled
Cab and back box art re-stenciled and clear coated matte finish
Backglass flaking painstakingly touched up, tripple thick coated and the touchup work clear coated
Playfield art reconstructed via Createx and water slide decals and clear coated
Original inserts replaced with starburst style
Brand new light sockets throughout
All new solonoids
All playfield parts that could fit in tumbler have been tumbled
Most all switches replaced with new units
All mechs rebuilt with new springs, bushings etc Inc flipper mechs
Fresh Titan clear rubber throughout
Boards were gone through and caps replaced, reflowed, header plugs were repinned and currently the oe lamp board has Siegecraft daughter boards for LEDs, NVRAM has replaced the battery
Displays are LED style
New plastics
New pop and dead pop parts including covers
New coin door skin (No coin mechs included)
New PPS Apron

Original displays can be supplied in lieu of the LED versions, incandescent bulbs can be installed rather then current LEDs (to offer cost reductions?)

I'm sure there are a few things I've left our but that should cover the blunt of it.

The bad?
It was restored by an amateur
Original pf glass
No coin mechs
Bb lock missing the cylinder
Starburst (non-original) inserts
Some minor woodwork cosmetics werent fully repaired, just touched up
One burned spot from previous ownership left untouched, only seen from under pf
I'm sure the community will find things in my images I forgot

And so it begins...

Bump for the Monday morning, it's not Crazy Pinball Amigos Friday, crowd

#8 6 years ago
Quoted from lpnsocal:

Change the door(swap/strip polish...?)

I should have been more clear, the new door skin still has the protective plastic on it.

#10 6 years ago

Checked my supplies, only have Williams style bats sorry folks.
But went ahead and removed the coin door protective film.
Also picking up new pf glass from a local shop.
Machine will be listed in the marketplace shortly.
Thanks for all the input!
