And let the fun begin! Got this from Pinballpast here in Omaha, NE. A fun rebuild job for me! The price was right, so I decided to take it home.

I knew it was going to be a bit of a process getting this one back together, but step by step...we'll get it.

Problems to first fix: the cabinet! Before anymore piece fell thru the bottom of this machine, I decided I was going to seal it up. The bottom plywood was coming apart, so I grabbed a spare piece of ply I had laying around and reinforce the bottom.

The outside of the cabinet doesn't look bad, but I would I'm curious what they used to paint this and what will stick to what I have...enamel, latex, lead paint! It's tough to find enamel at your local paint store anymore, so I'll be curious what you guys think.
Thanks,
Joe

Well, it's been a bit of a money pit, but I finally got there.
Had to buy the following:
1. Chime box (it was gone)!
2. Hold relay, ball gate relay, score silinoid, two flipper coils
3. Paint for the playing field.
4. Rubbers and some other bling.

So I spent more on the parts than I did on the machine...but regardless, it was worth it, because this is one sweet machine! Plays great!

The playing field paint job went well. Little tough in a couple of areas but over all...for my first time...it went well. The backglass had some flaking and I tried to touch that up.....and man, never again. That is a difficult process that I'll never attempt again! WOW!

Here's a pic of what I have now. Clear coated with Varathane and ready to wax!
