PICKUP IN CENTRAL INDIANA ONLY - NO SHIPPING
Here's an old (and rare) electromechanical pinball machine for your collection. It's Midway's 1964 Rodeo pinball game. Midway produced only four different pinball machines, including Rodeo. For a machine that's nearly 60 years old, it plays surprisingly well. The flippers are strong and the ball action is fast. All of the lamps on this game are working, and everything operates as it should. There are a few issues with the game, though. First, there is no rear door on the backbox; if you plan to place the back of the game flush against a wall, that wouldn't be noticeable. Next, there's no clear glass over the playfield. Because the game has a center ball shooter, the playfield is slightly longer than a standard pinball game, so you will probably need to have a sheet of glass custom cut. There's a chip on the left side of yellow pop bumper, but these bumper caps are available online. All of the screened plastics are here with no chips or cracks. However, most of these plastics are "wavy." The outside of the cabinet and the backbox of the game have been repainted. Also, the game is supposed to have two bells to provide the sound. One of the bells is still here, but it's been disconnected; the rest of the bell apparatus is missing. The other bell -- and the solenoid/apparatus needed to ring the bell -- is missing. The knob that moves the turret shooter will need some adjustment. The shooter can be moved by hand, and when it is, the knob will rotate as it should. But the turret shooter will not move from side to side if the knob is turned. A small solenoid chart (which was originally attached inside the backbox) is included here, but no manual or instruction cards.
