Tempting, looks like a fun conversion. Most likely be near impossible to find side art and backglass though. Full conversion required a new (included in the kit) sound board, lamp board and game roms.
That's the sound board, which is the only board that came with the kit as far as I know.
This looks complete other than the backglass, which is the type of plastic affair that usually came with these kits. Oh, and the side art, which was a bit crap anyhow.
Basically all you need to do to play this in an early Bally game is plug in the sound board, and add a few jumpers and cut a couple traces on the MPU.
I have 3 gamatron's. Getting them working takes some "thought". Alot of hacks and plugs. Can be a PITA but well worth it when completed. I would assume this is close to the same type of kit. But...I have the gamatron instruction book.
That one looks nicer than mine.
I only have the playfield myself and am using Open Pinball Project hardware/software to slowly bring some life back to it.

Quoted from Pdxmonkey:I know a guy local with the PF, side decals, and backglass but no sound board.
I have just the sound board if your buddy needs it.
Quoted from Pinwow:I wonder if all of the parts on there are compatible with Bally.......
You mean under the playfield? No, there's a lot of plastic; I think pop bumper brackets are plastic. Rollover switches are definitely plastic. Posts are unique, and again, plastic.

I believe the manual and setup instructions for Bullseye 301 are available on IPDB; if not, my buddy who bought the game would likely be able to upload them.

Okay, thanks
