My other half has wanted a creech since we met and by chance one came up 30mins from us, so would be rude not to look.
It was a non pinball guy who had it stored for a while. He was surprised when I lifted the playfield, as if he didn't know you could do that.
I told the other half it wasn't worth it, it was worse than we thought but i was ignored and she bought it. I'm the main fixer at home so it'll probably fall to me to get it nice although she says she'll pay for the parts and try to do what she can.
I'm overwhelmed as I really didn't want this project.
The boards all looked good. Only fault was the time and date as the batteries (which are off the board thankfully) must be dead.

No hologram and I'm not sure what is going on with the hologram gear? ( The mirror in the photo is just sitting there) I have never looked under a creech so no clue how it works.
My main issues were the hologram missing and the wear to the two S Inserts (see the picture).

What are our options to repair the KISS inserts?
What could be going on with the hologram and what are our options to replace it? We're not keen on the LCD options and would like to keep the spirit of the original.
Will be able to investigate properly when we've got it set up... I stopped looking at the issues when I thought we weren't going to get it, then the other half decided she was happy with it.
Help.
