Cool game. I have never seen one of those.

I'll be interested to see how your coin door comes out. I have that same door, albeit with three coin slots, on my Bally Surfers. It's scratched up and in need of help. I'm going to completely repaint the game in the future so I'll be watching this to see how your work on it comes on.

So you don't want to use the original Bally dark gray painted legs? I kind of like the look of them over the chrome, I have three Bally games and I put those on all three of the games.

Quoted from ZNET:

First, Have you installed the new glass in the frame to confirm that the glass fits? These are the dimensions on the Marco website so I suspect that they are accurate. It's my understanding that installing the glass from the head's end is the much easier approach than from the player's end.
Second, Was Ivan's $45 price for this nonstandard dimension glass or just for the standard glass size?
Third, What is Ivan's Pinside identity or other contact information (please PM me).
Thanks!

The easy way is to take the frame completely apart, lie it upside down on the floor, and then put it all back together.

The glass has a vinyl channel piece on all four sides that you need to install before reassembling the frame.
