Quoted from Mikala:I have not posted in quite awhile. Thought I would show how you squeeze 8 games in a 12x15’ room. I actually have room for a 9th. Knocked outed the wall behind the row of machines, will be expanding to 16 eventually.

I posted this on what I brought home last night. I’m hoping to get her 100% and on route in the next couple of weeks. I already got BGResto and PBR to the rescue!

It is Ken!
Quoted from Idahojerry:4 EMs. Derby Day is a 1956. Family has had it since early 60s. Plays pretty well. Full House is 1964, Skylab 1974 and Liberty Bell is 1977.[quoted image]
Looks like you have room for two more. Just move the ones on the right out of there

I noticed your Old Chicago cabinet paint looks nice and unfaded... is it a repaint, or are you amongst the lucky few who has an original unfaded cabinet?

Please post a pic of your Blackjack EM when you get it back. My dream pin.
I’d never go to work if I had your collection.

It looks original. You can't see the entire cabinet. I've seen many that have one good side and one faded side.

EM Charlie's Angels? Never seen or heard of one. Looks great!!!
Quoted from Playdium:EM Charlie's Angels? Never seen or heard of one. Looks great!!!
Saw and played one at The Silverball Museum in Asbury Park, NJ. It was several years ago, so I don't know if it's still there or not.
My first EM, picked it up a few days ago, it was suppose to be working when i went and got it, but it wasnt, still had to grab it up either way, never worked on an EM before so its a whole new learning curve to tackle, but its been a fun ride, especially when i got it into a game for the first time, the cabinet is pretty shot, delaminating on the front and right side, the front panel looks like its going to fall off, and the metal thingy on the inside left side where you connect the leg has rusted and fallen off, but even with how bad the cabinet is i could not pass it up, i know i'd be regretting it if i did. I fully intend to restore it back to its glory days and learning about how EM's function is a joy in and of itself. It may not be the best looking EM out there, but thanks to it I think i may be more of an EM guy now then a SS, absolutely looking forwards to geting more EM's in the collection and this one is easily my favorite out of all my machines now. Looking at all yalls machines is such a joy and it saddens me to know that alot of them were destroyed back in the day. Now i really want to add a Capt. Card and a Top Hand to complete the trilogy. Thank you all for sharing, i have a couple hundred pages to go through now... Such a beautiful collection of EM's.

Quoted from MrBally:John Dayhuff dayhuff has quite a story to tell...
Epitome of the pinball hunt, discovery, and ultimately the parting in sorrow for the next big hunt.

Enjoy. I had a High Hand project many years ago. I bondo'd the rough cabinet and sanded it down, got it looking nice and undercoated it and made my own stencils, but then I sold it before I got it finished, so I'll enjoy following your restoration thread on it.
My Bally eagle eye spotted this 1964 2 in 1 on eBay for a ridiculous opening bid. I tried to reach a deal with the seller but then it was went to another online auction site and was able to secure for a bit more than I planned. Had to stash the cabinet at work until I can do a stealth transfer to the basement. Playfield looks good, cabinet is fair, BG has fade (BGresto has done this one 
) and it supposedly works.
Was not on my short list but I have never seen one for sale and only one other Pinsider has it listed in their collection.

I remember seeing that one, its rare. My first thought was it is a thinly veiled gambling device!

That's a new one on me. Nice!

So now you have a "2 in 1" to go with your "3 In Line"!

Don't forget Six Sticks
Quoted from Nikrox2:That’s the one that was causing me problems (or pointing me in the right direction. Dang tilt!)
A couple of the Williams I owned from that era are so hard to complete or win a special on, I believe they came up with that to give the player a fighting chance.
Myself, I don't like easy games to win on.

And picked up a local machine that needed a little bit of work as well. 1968 Bally "Dogies" Lot's of gates for those "dogies" to go thru! All nicely working, and the playfield is in great condition - just wish I could find a better backglass for this one.

Your wish is granted. Contact bgresto.com

Out of curiosity, can bgresto print up new backglasses? Or do they only do restorations on existing backglasses?
I assumed it was the latter, but from what limited reading I've done on their process it seems like they could theoretically print new ones too.

Just got my Sky Jump. I bought it from a guy on Pinside and friend of mine picked it up in mid-August near St Louis. The game finally made it down with him to Florida for his winter vacation. I have a new Wade playfield to put into it. Game should be sweet when it's all done.

Looks like you can get 12 more in there Jethro! And I see the Harley made it all the way from Indy! Hope all is well my friend! (Got props on the HD lamps you made last week, amazing work thanks again!)
