@phil-lee I know this thread is super old but as a new Spin-A-Card owner myself I'm extremely interested in how this turned out. Do you still own the machine?

Quoted from phil-lee:

I rebuilt the back box original, shopped it out and played the snot out of it. Unfortunately it became boring, and with a decision to only collect Williams and Bally machines it was sold along with Out of Sight. Despite new pop bumpers and flipper assemblies with yellow-dot coils it never became a fast machine, just a good clunky example of this Era Gottlieb.
I wish you the best with yours, a real pretty machine and intriguing until you figure it out.

Nice, that's good to hear you got it good enough to sell. Yeah I can see how this would get boring, I mainly bought mine as a low level entry point into restoring/repairing and it's a cool piece of furniture/conversation piece. I don't know if I'll keep collecting as the machines I truly want are insanely expensive. Maybe when I retire or something lol
