I love the really dirty pictures! I've never done a restoration like this, but I have shopped a few machines. Cleaning up those layers of dirt is one of the most satisfying parts!

Good luck! I hope you can teach your dad a thing or two!

Removing and cleaning the wire harness is the part that scares me the most. How hard was it?

Quoted from evanshane237:

It wasn't bad you just have to remember to take lots of pictures and scrubbing them is a pain in the butt. But I cannot stress the importance of pictures so take lots of them.

I've thoroughly shopped at least four machines, and I've always taken almost enough pictures. Even though the top of the playfield is always pretty bare, there's always still a TON of stuff on the bottom, including the wire harness. It looks super intimidating to keep removing stuff at that point. Every switch? Every lamp!? Ahhh!

I didn't talk to you guys, but I figured out who you were while you were setting up your games. Thanks for bringing your amazing games. I played and loved your Road Show and Funhouse!
