Offered for sale is my 1981 Bally Eight Ball Deluxe. I've soured on finishing it at this point, with too many other projects I need to be working on. Most of the heavy lifting is already done. The game plays, but needs a few adjustments (see below) to really finish it out. This was to be the centerpiece of my collection at one point in time, but I'm just frustrated with it and ready to move on.
Upgrades/modifications:
-Hardtop from Outside Edge
-Brand new mirrored backglass and plastic set from Shay Arcade Group
-Xpin LED displays
-Alltek MPU
-Alltek Ultimate Lamp Board
-Weebly Aux Lamp Board
-Rebuilt power supply
-Lower flippers "downgraded" from linear to old-style Bally (much more efficient)
-Jet black powdercoated rails/lock bar/legs
-Custom prototype lookalike pop bodies/caps
-Clear silicone bands throughout, new red finned posts (matches prototype layout)
-Standup targets all replaced with new translucent targets
-All lamp sockets--both insert and GI--replaced with new bayonet-style, with Comet 2SMD LEDs installed throughout
-Pinball Pimp stencil kit included for repainting cab
The bad:
-The pops have proven difficult for me to dial in, even with new switches
-The left star rollover is inconsistent, even with a new switch. Likely just needs further adjustment
-Something is crooked with the playfield and the way it sits in the cab. In order for the playfield to be level, the cab has to be crooked
-Cab shows considerable wear (but is solid) and definitely needs repainted with the included stencils at some point to really finish the build
-Powdercoated side rails were heavily scratched from moving and need redone (I am working on getting a fresh set done in the next couple of weeks)
$4500, located in Tecumseh, KS. This has a lot of potential to be really nice if you finish out the last few things. I'm just over it at this point.
