No doubt this is a nice restoration. However my very first thought was the cab should be speckled. I’m also surprised no one‘s mentioned the pop bumper caps. They’re plain white instead of having the “EK” like the original. I know those original caps are hard to come by and I don’t think they’re being reproduced.
Nonetheless, it’s a good looking pin and I’m sure it’ll sell.
Quoted from MrSanRamon:Yes, you probably need to settle for decals:

Wow, those decals look pretty good. Thanks for the eBay link. I had my EK pop caps painted but the decals look pretty good.
Quoted from rotordave:It’s over to the restorer if they want to speckle it or not.
The speckle was put there to hide fly shit on location.
My house doesn’t have any flies so no fly shit.
No way I’m spraying some ugly speckly crap over the top of a top looking, automotive quality glossy cabinet respray.
But that’s me.

That’s what’s nice about pinball. You could do it anyway you like. I’m just saying I prefer the original speckled look.
Hope the OP gets this sold soon and the EK finds a new owner!
