Up for grabs here is a pretty nice Wisconsin pinball machine from April 1948, manufactured by United Manufacturing Co. This would be a PERFECT project or restoration machine.

So this one in particular...

There is no playfield glass. The wood rail at the bottom that holds in the glass in missing (shouldn't be hard to reduplicate). The top of the backglass box is missing a piece of wood. The backglass does have some pealing at the bottom, and probably should be Krylon tripple glazed before moving it (I can do that as I have the Krylon here). It was stored in a basement for quite some time and all the metal parts on the playfield are rusy or corroded. The flippers are rusted fairly tight to the bushings. The ball launcher is rusted almost solid. The machine will NOT power up (I checked all the fuses and the transformer IS putting out proper power...might be some more fuses I overlooked). There are no keys and both locks have been drilled to open. The rubbers have deteriorated to the point of just saying they don't exist.

Good stuff. The playfield, though rather filthy, is in quite good shape (I started cleaning it at the top...but, now it's all yours . There is some wear around the pop-up holes. The cabinet paint is VERY intact with very little marring...though, it has rather darkened over the years. The legs (not pictured) are in fantastic shape. The pop bumper caps are PERFECT.

PLEASE ask questions...come on by and take a look..you can even play some of my machines that work

Make me an offer...I'm rather motivated to get rid of it...and, we might be able to arrange me helping deliver it in my truck (LOCALLY).
