Price

$ 500

Gottlieb King Pin Wedgehead Pinball machine. $500 or reasonable offer.
Located in South Glens Falls, NY 12803

Currently not working - I am not an EM guy so haven't looked into it.
The Score motor runs continuous and the Credit Unit in Head fires constantly when you power it up.
Backglass is nice with only a few minor flakes - looks great.
Playfield has wear by top kickouts and a little graining here and there - but overall very nice.
Cabinet Solid and nice - all original paint but someone cut a small fist size hole in bottom under coin box area - see pictures.
The large plastic above the drop targets has a crack in it.
Needs new Rubber and a cleaning & obviously some mechanical repair.
Legs and coin door have some rust - see pictures.
Missing the Lock Down Bar and back metal panel to the head.
Metal trim channel in back of head that back door sits in is bent up.

Overall great above average solid basement pick that has been in a home ignored for a long time.

Will trade for/toward a System 11 project game or sell outright.

Is the backglass made of lexan, or is it actual glass?

The backglass is real glass as far as I can tell - did they use anything else?

Looks like a beautiful example that just needs some love. Wish I had the money whatsoever, I'd love to fix it. King Pin is a great classic game that I always gravitate towards, probably my EM "grail". Damn that teenage budget, gets me EVERY time.

Good luck with the sale. Hurts quite a lot to pass this one up!

If a deal falls through this weekend (I hope not, it's a good one) I'll be interested. Is this the part where I bribe jrpinball to sell me it down the road and I'll fix it for free? Just kidding...
