This was a year and a half long process. I bought the whole game + restoration materials from Vanderveen. I had the metal powdercoated locally in candy orange. I sanded the cab and redid the art. Keith Holbrook redid the playfield with clear coat, and he cleaned up all he could.

This game is so fun, I will play it more tomorrow, I live on the 3rd floor and our freight elevator was broken so we had to haul this up 6 flights of stairs and I was too exhausted to even try to play it too long.

All Titan rubbers which really makes certain areas around the pop bumpers go bananas. I also put on the whole Tilt graphics package.

Ahwwwwsome! Glad you posted this. I was looking for examples of the magnet apron and blades. I just hate to loose the rule cards on the apron.

Man, I kept looking for the price hoping it was a FS ad. Nice pin!

Quoted from Viggin900:

In hindsight, I should have taken the apron to be repowdered or whatever, this doesn't bother me too much, I might do it later but believe it or not a lot of this was still on a budget.

Can't wait to delve into the gameplay. But I think the art package is kind of snazzy considering there aren't too many mods for this and Party Zone.

The guy charged me $120 for the powdercoating, it's 2 stage but he normally does bmx bikes and such. Normally out here people charge $300-$500 and who knows what for the top pinball guys.

So my ramp wasn't bad I saw Ramp O Matic had some blue ones and I thought I'd take a chance. Works great, looks great.
