That Axl hole is in sorry shape....The insert on the "G" ramp is pretty beat too. Not sure what price you got but there seems to be a lot of work needed for that PF. Looks like your gonna need a new scoop too.

Sorry B_R I think you should pass on this one.....In the 1st pics it has some kinda metal piece where the "Duff" captive ball should be. This one looks to be beat to hell. Not worth it unless your getting it for around 1k & want to take on a major restore.
Quoted from Firebaall:What- Ever Dude ,,,, I got something you can Spit Polish !!!!!!
If you took offense to what I said, maybe it's time you stepped up your game to something more than wiping dirt off a pinball machine, and putting LEDs in it.

Man WTF? this aint RGP.... why does it have to go from a productive thread trying to help someone out to shit talking. 
Quoted from Baiter:smassa: Where did that pic come from? Nice looking game.

Looking at that playfield pic there are incorrect posts all over the place. Also some kind of weird 1-way gate above the left outlane. Kinda looks like a game that would launch the ball across the playfield to the left out of the ball shooter. GnR shouldnt have this. have any close up pics of this area of the Playfield?

Not sure if the seller of this one is a member here but to assume a GnR will sell for 5k especially one that has an many issues as this one may be a bit of a stretch. This one on ebay didnt sell the 1st time around and it is in very nice condition.
Quoted from Firebaall:I see the machine that B_R is looking at, worth 4K when fixed up correctly. Take a close look at the one that sold for over 4K. It's got axl hole wear that wasn't even corrected.
Im not convinced that it would be worth trying to buy this GnR with the hope of flipping it for 4k. That thing is beat to hell & has quite a few issues. The fact that the inserts are that bad, Major outhole wear & some kind of weird gate that shouldnt be there along with many issues that could be hidden. Sure if he gets it for lets say $1500 it may be worth it but anything more then 2k is wasted money.
Parts alone for this game are expensive and it could run over $500 in parts alone not including time spent just to make this thing look respectable.

Its a fun game....Owned one for years & it was my 1st DMD pin. I'd be patient & wait for a nicer example to come along. Too many unknowns with that one.
