I'm working on a major restoration project on 2 Paragons. One for me and one to sell. About 2 months left. Both have nice playfield touchups and clearcoat. Cabinets and original backglasses near perfect. I plan to replace all coils and put LEDs in inserts and backbox. Will use traditional bulbs on main playfield for original look. All new targets and and pop caps. Also plan to make custom clear plastics for playfield and replace polished bells. One has all new boards and the other has original. Also will include rebuilt rectifier.

I know some will want to know cost. Original pin, parts and special services for playfield restore and clear are well over $3,000.

What do you think a major restore project for Paragon like this is worth?

Nice catch, I think it is! That won't be there after full restore!

On one pin several coils had signs of deteriorating plastic around lugs. So, to make more bullet proof, changing them all out!
