A few years ago I purchased a project Flipper Cowboy lower cabinet. Once I got it home I stored it away with the view to start work on it when I found a head.

Quite a while later I managed to locate a complete head, minus the backglass which a very kind and helpful EM collector offered to sell to me. He had the head stored away for a while, hoping to come across someone in need, rather than part it out. Lucky for me he did! Once I agreed to buy it, he worked diligently on to ensure it worked 100% before packing, crating and sending it to me.

Now that I have both here with me I started looking over the lower cabinet and playfield in real detail and much to my surprise its missing more than I initially thought. Major items such as both flipper mechanisms, the transformer and a few relays are obviously missing. Can you spot anything else?

Unfortunately someone decided to cut a large section of the wiring loom between the playfield and relay panel.

I am determined to restore this game. Please help me identify the missing parts. I intend to purchase a Gottlieb 1968 parts catalogue with the hope it will assist me in identifying some of the parts and more importantly the part numbers to place an order with PBR. Lots of photos to follow

Two of the 3 dead bumpers have been removed. It also needs new bumper caps and a few jones plugs.
