Well I may have finally lost my marbles, but I'm putting up for sale my grail pin and dream restoration project. The completely over-the-top restoration was completed last year by the incomparable Pinball Mike-D. No expense was spared. You can see a video of the finished machine here:

The VERY well documented restoration thread of Pinside can be found here.

Virtually everything on the machine is new, including a new CPR playfield which the perfectionist Mike-D convinced me to send out for touch-up to some misaligned insert art and a fresh clear-coat. A brand new BigTime cabinet was used, as well as new CPR mirrored plastics, all new bulb sockets and ground braid, as well as more powder-coating and Mike Chestnut chrome plating than should be allowed on one pinball machine.

My asking price is $7350, which is a little less than what I have in the pin. Since the video and restoration thread was completed I have added a rare, "unobtanium" NOS backglass.

The machine is currently in Fort Myers, FL and I can provide current photos to serious buyers. I am happy to help with palletizing, crating, and/or shipping on this gorgeous pinball machine. Cash deals only, no trades.

>Yes this is an amazing looking and playing game... surprised to see it for sale.

Thanks Sean! I would really hate to see it go, but I've got too many machines right now, and I have my eye on something very expensive. And if it doesn't sell I will gladly keep it, as I'll never ever own a nicer one.

That said, I have responded to all of the folks who have PM'ed me. This would make an amazing Chanukah or X-Mas present for someone special.
