I am in, just picked up this one, I am thinking on sending out my playfield for a restore, not sure yet.
It plays but it's dirty. Previous owner had it over 15 years, don't think he ever cleaned it!

After seeing Pinwiz's playfield come back from HSA, I emailed Brian and he's going to do mine, spent all of black Friday tearing mine down. I am honestly feeling a bit overwhelmed, what a pile of stuff to tear down, I labeled everything and took about 150 pictures of it. Hope it all goes together again!! I am
really looking forward to seeing this pin come back to it's original beauty. here's some pics
Monday it's off to HSA

I numbered every light and numbered the playfield, Then I found out HSA like to sand and paint the bottom, so I took a load of pics of my numbered playfield, I should be ok. It amazed me how many bad breaks there were in my stapled strand of wire, and jumpers that were installed to fix them.
I can't seem to find any of the old bally lamp sockets, I will need a few new ones. probably just use the newer style. Whats the deal with LED's, Alltek lamp driver board, guess I am going to be in on that too.
Next is rebuilding the flippers, my pawls are shot wish I could just find the nylon part that's all that really wears.

Hellfire, thats a beautiful job, I am impressed, what kind off tape is that that you are using for
the lights, I have not seen that before, neat, no staples, I'm figuring you put a 470 ohm resistor
across all the sockets, and can use the original light board with LED's. Do you have a picture of the whole playfield with the tape pattern, I am thinking of going this way also
Geeze this pin is turning into a Money pit, but I love it!!

This is perfect timing, I just recently got my playfield back from HSA , was planning on starting the rebuild this week! HSA's work is just fantastic, my playfield looks better than new! I'll be ordering plastics
