This game turned out awesome...stunning example! Congrats to both you and your son.

I just picked one up tonight...and now you’re making me want to go the distance given how beautiful this game looks when done with as much effort as you put in. Truly fantastic job.

Quoted from MustangPaul:

Well if anyone could do it you can.

Yeah Paul, I don’t know about that. Taking it to this level, with a HEP style restoration, would be kicking it up a notch for me. jsa and his son did a phenomenal job on this game. I can’t stop staring at it.

At least I took the first step last night...acquisition. And this one definitely needs some love.

OP
Quoted from jsa:

Thank you! In all seriousness, this game is really fun and a fantastic commentary on the state of things in 1979. One of the weirdest years in America to revisit, culturally. In all its glory, this game really is amazing to look at.
Let me know if you run across any issues in the process, I'd love to follow along!

Definitely a quirky theme. I sold my Embryon last year, and felt the need to pick up another Bally widebody. If I do undertake the Future Spa, I will print this thread and use it as a hardcore step-by-step guide.
