Joining the Corvette club with a very nice machine that I've got:
Corvette neatly tucked in the corner of our bedroom
Had to drive 650km to get it, but it was a nice adventure. Barely fit inside our Passat
Is it possible to fit a pinball inside B6 Passat? Yes. Is it recommended? Hell no!
The backbox is very clean, even has the original fuse list attached to the door. Other than replaced capacitors on the power board, all looks to be original.
Very clean backbox. The capacitors look changed
The cabinet has pretty much no fading, but standard damage around the legs is present. Legs came with some very rusty levelers. Also one of the leg brackets is stripped (only one screw holding the leg), but that's also fixable.
X-Mas tree came in a very weird arrangement:
These domes on the x-mas tree are clearly wrong
So, I just swapped the domes with yellow lights on the back until I order proper ones:
Swapped domes with the x-mas tree
Looks correct now
The LT-5 ramp came with a standard crack and a broken off flasher socket. Will order a new one at some point
Standard ramp crack and broken off flasher socket
Also missing a couple of screws on the posts. Anyone knows what kind of screws those are? They're probably not metric, right?
Other than that, the playfield is absolutely immaculate
Finally one last question about the right outlane post. Does it need to have a rubber? It seems that there's no rubber indicated in the manual, but I've seen pictures with and without a post rubber, so what's the proper way here?
Do I need a rubber on this post?
The pin plays very nice and is a lot louder than my Fish Tales, could it be because it's in much better shape, or is just the overall construction?
