I am selling my high end restoration Williams Congo. This machine won best 90's Pinball Machine at the 2017 Texas Pinball Festival. I restored this machine over two years and added a few custom things to it. It would be hard to find an nicer Congo than this.

-fully restored and clear coated playfield
-new clear ramps
-new plastics
-plastic protectors from Indypinhead
-tasteful LED conversion with spotlights to help with visibility
-mirror blades
-Hippo Toy
-Fully rebuilt mechs
-Great Lakes Electronics flipper button boards
-Full black powder coat of armor, coin door and many interior pieces
-Upgraded 10" subwoofer
-Target decals
-Restored cabinet with new decals and clear coated
-Custom graphic on back of head
-Boards have been serviced and bullet proofed by local professional
-All coils under the playfield have had molex connectors installed for easy service.
-rebuilt gorilla mech'
-RED Led DMD
-Original Translite has a few blemishes, signed by designer. Will include new translite on request.

Pictures show a ColorDMD, but I am keeping that. The game plays wonderfully and has been dialed in. It is a fantastic game, but I think I am ready to move on and this would be a wonderful machine for the high end collector. I would prefer cash sale and for it to be picked up in person. Shipping can be arranged by the buyer if they prefer. I do not have the ability to pallet the game.

Please feel free to ask questions. I will add more photos of the cabinet this evening. I thought I had some on this computer. Here is the restoration thread for those that are interested. https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/congo-full-restorationcustomization-above-and-beyond

Quoted from Djshakes:

I was going to say great price but then noticed the color dmd wasn't included. Kind of a deal breaker.

I am sure we could work something out

Quoted from ecmurrayf1:

I saw this at Pinfest and it deserved the award. GOV did an amazing job on the restoration.

Thank you.

How about a price drop $7500 or a GotG Premium in trade?

#23 6 years ago
Quoted from snaroff:

What's the volcano look like? Tough to see in the photos. Many of the volcanos are cracked, chipped and I don't believe anyone has reproduced them and NOS volcano's are impossible to find.
Are the weldments all original? Or the new and improved ones developed by Mantis Amusements?
Thanks.

You can see detailed pics of the volcano and the repair in the restore thread. The chute is original but has been reinforced and will not bend.

Quoted from Gryszzz:

Wow. Beautimous.
Nice gameroom Gov.

Thanks,

Wish the gameroom were mine. That is my father's basement
