I have been really wanting to do some work with the Mission Pinball Framework. I have long wanted my own custom machine, but I am not the most creative person in the world. As luck would have it, I stumbled upon a High Speed in VERY bad shape. The playfield is roached and will need a Hardtop. The cabinet needs work. The back glass, boards and plastics are all in great shape! So, since I have to do a considerable amount of work to it.. and I bought it for $100, I figure it would make a great candidate for doing some custom work to.

So here is my thought process. Instead of going whole hog for my first custom table.. I thought I would keep the original artwork and playfield design. Instead work on new rules and modes, similar to what Cactus Canyon Continued did. That way, when I finish, if anyone with a High Speed wants to do the same, they can buy a $400 board and be up and running in a couple hours!

One thing I am a HUGE fan of from CCC is Drunk Multiball, where the flippers reverse. So that is the first mode that popped into my head.. A Drunk Driving Multiball. My initial thought is this, When you have a Multiball going, set it so if you re-lock the balls, it will kick off Drunk Driving Multiball. Queue some music and a drunkenly slurring series of call outs.

Obviously, this is not a project that will be done in the next few weeks, or quite possibly even in the next year. But I have the parts, so why not!
I am open to suggestions for new modes and rule changes. The only caveat I have, it there can not be any changes to the playfield andit must work with the existing switches and hardware.

Some pictures to give an idea of the damage this poor machine has seen.

Good point. I will have to look further into that, but I think it would be worth it.

My plan was to use a P-Roc for this.... However, I need to look into APC. If it can make this work, even better!

LOL! It will be free when I finish it... But I think I can make that an option really easily.

My initial though was to use a fliptronics board, but that might be even easier.
