Quoted from Pinballmike217:I recently had the good fortune of finding a HUO Gottlieb Rocky. Machine had been in the same house since new. A little cleaning, some new rubbers and it looks amazing, check out how clean the inside of the coin door is, I have never seen one that clean before. The original battery was still on the CPU but fortunately there was no damage and I could easily remove it. Here are pics:

I would click on the first picture then advance one at a time with the arrow. I don't like the way the Flickr home page opens. My game room does not have great lighting so the pictures are a little dark. Enjoy.
A lot of these flickr threads get lost after a few years. Browsing old Pinside Flickr links don’t work anymore. I’d encourage you to upload them directly to the site!
Did you check/record the audits before you cut the battery off? Would be cool to see. I checked the audits on the LW3 that was on route with original 1992 batteries and it had over 20 years of recorded “idle minutes” it was pretty cool!
