So i picked up a "project" Centigrade 37 EM pinball. Its a 1977 Gottlieb wedge head.

Project being the key word on this baby.

She was lonely laying on a floor asking to be saved. I couldnt resist.

The Bad:
 head is beat to hell and missing some parts. I could use some help here.
 cab is solid but flaking real bad.
 back glass is all but flaked off...however i know a guy whos got one for me

The Good:
 Playfield is very nice, little to no wear
 No rust
 No frozen parts, everything seems to move freely
 No cracked plastics
 All PF parts are original and in good shape

So i need some help in identifying the missing parts i need.

Here is a pic of the back box and you can see where im clearly missing a part.

Here in this pic from ipdb you can see the part. Someone just cut it out, which makes me think its not unique to the game and they used it elsewhere..i hope.

Any help would be much appreciated!!

here is a pic of the under PF, very clean.

Great thanks for your help.

Looks like I WTB a "ball count unit" or "ball in play unit".

Thanks

A friend has a Gottlieb magnotron head. http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1519

Can anyone tell me if there is a ball count unit in there I can use?

Thanks

Thanks Ken. Sending email.

So i tracked down a guy who says he parted out a gottlieb single player ice show.

He sent me pics of the ball count unit he has. Can anyone tell me if this is the right part for me? New to EMS.

Thanks for all the help so far everyone. Ken is going to check out his c37 and compare. The pic he posted looks to me that it has two rows of contacts unlike the one Dirtflipper posted with a single row of 6. Does that suggest an add a ball? Not sure Im not an EM guy. But I am sure someone here will have the part.

Thanks for the help so far, in the mean time im cleaning the PF and doing some minor touch ups.
