I need a Gottlieb Mini-Pool cabinet or similar era, going to re-paint anyway. Doesn't have to be perfect.

Also need the back door for a Bally Hi-Deal.

Curious question if it's not already been asked.......anyone making repo EM heads? I am sure the Gottlieb design is trademarked, but what about the others?

Reason I ask is, I can probably reproduce them but the issue is not having the original heads to copyI do have a wedge though). The other issue is time. The third issue would be material cost. Light boards are 3/4". I think some of the Williams Ems are made from 3/4 and the earlier wedgies from Gottlieb's are 1/2" for the most part, with Luan faces and cut blocks for support. Sheets of cabinet grade 1/2" or 3/4" ply are between $70-90. I would guesstimate each head costing about $200 to manufacture which would be a difficult sale for anyone.
