Lucked into a non-documented HUO Safecracker this weekend. 
My brother and I work with a girl, and she over heard us talking about pinball. As luck would have it, her bf won a pinball machine in a contest when he was 12 years old trying to win a Nintendo 64.. so 16 years ago he had a SC delivered to his house while he was at school, and it's been in his old bedroom in his parent's house ever since.
The rest is history... 
pics to come
Quoted from gweempose:How many tokens did it come with?
gettin' there
Quoted from Cam:Wow! Congrats! You must be soooooo excited Talk about a lucky find.
I have to assume the price was pretty nice too
the guy did his research, but yes the price was very, very nice. 
Quoted from gweempose:Looking at those under playfield photos reminds me of what a pain in the a** SC is to work on. Everything is so condensed that you can barely get your hands in there.
I swear the PF is just as heavy is IJ's. unbelievably heavy for it's size
Quoted from gweempose:Yeah. The first time you lift the playfield on a SC, it's a bit of a shock. Being so small, you expect it to be light, but it's actually heavy as hell. This is why the aftermarket support rails are so important. Do you notice any bowing in the playfield?
The PF does have a rough time going in and out of the game. You have a link to those support rails?
thanks Gweem
Hope you all enjoyed these pics! I feel unbelievably blessed to have been able to stumble upon this.
After playing this game, winning a token. . . Safecracker easily solidifies Pat Lawlor as my #1 designer. TAF is easily my favorite game, and SC is incredibly innovative. They just don't make them like this anymore. Amazing that this game has 20 different unique tokens that you could collect, or play for a special round of Assault the Vault multiball.
It really is a lot of fun.
"In Pinball We Trust"
Quoted from doughslingers:Nice! Next time I go to up I-81 I like an invite to play. I know its rude to ask but dont see these machines much.
Absolutely, just send me a pm in advance, we're 15mins off 81 near Daleville. I'd love to have ya.
Not sure if the pf is bowing yet Casey, looking into getting some upgraded rails asap.
and Taylor, we have lots of protectors on the way. Need to look for some flipper rubbers, didn't realize they were unobtainium!
Also beginning to wonder how much it would cost for HEP to protect this thing, really make it indestructable from the get-go. would be sooooo worth it, Im going to keep this thing around a long time and don't want to take any risks.
This is an amazing game, I really love it.
