I picked this up in the spring with the hopes of doing a full restore when the CPR PF's, etc came out. Sadly I do not have the space or the $$$ to get it done right now and thought I would pass it along.

The good: New repro rectifier board, rebuilt driver board (I think including pins), bullet proofed MPU, new bumper caps, drop target, bumpers.

The bad: the PF. Serious wear and uneven inserts. I never bothered messing with it as I figured I would buy a new PF.

The cab is solid with some nicks. The back glass started to bubble at the bottom and was treated with triple thick. It's a great restoration candidate.

Game is located in the 01060

Bumping this as the buyer backed out. All the electronics are solid. Just waiting for some CPR love.

For $600 I'd buy this in a heartbeat! Those pf colors are EASY to match. I think the yellow createx was right out of the bottle. Use a toothpick to spell "Thousand" in the middle.
Your pf wear isn't that bad. Heat up the inserts and push them down a bit.
This would be a great game to restore.

All things considered, this is truly an excellent buy. Simplistic addiction, how great it is to pull off a huge bonus and with 3x via the drops, back to the shooter lane.

$600 is a no brainer for anyone looking for a good playing classic. Glwts!

And the game looks soooo good when you put some LEDs in it. My buddies Bally ST was my first real start at a restore and came out looking like a champ. Forget $600, raise that price to $700!!!!

Thanks guys, I forgot to mention the LED'd backbox and pop bumpers. I am really taking a beating on this one. I put a lot into it.

There just wasn't a lot of local love for this. Ended up fire sale'ing it along with my Buck Rogers to a local reseller. Hopefully someone will pick it up and give it the love it deserves. It was just bad timing for me.
