Drove to Pendelton to get her, pretty bad BG, decent PF, no legs no glass. Only two rainstorms and 2 tarps destroyed making it back home.

are you gonna make a playfield overlay and replacement backglass?

I will live with the BG. We are spraying the PF with a clearcoat today... then spray the interior cabinet.

It's that Mr Grip stuff for stripped wood holes.

Nice work, thanks for sharing some pics. By the looks of your collection it'll be a great addition with the rest of your System 1 machines. I'm definatly a fan of them also, I'll look forward to seeing the progress updates.

And here is the last coat. There are spots that the clear coat would not pool into. The PF was resistant to this product. Nothing crazy but i am going to try a different clear coat next time.
