Cool! Overall that’s looks to be in great shape. I have been working on one that we found last spring. After a lot of cleaning, etc, it’s getting presentable and actually plays games. I need to repair or replace pretty much every light socket, so that’s my next major task. I got new plastic from pinball rescue in Australia. Ours had turned to curled crunchy powder.

I think your glass is slightly better than ours. I plan to seal it and touch up the white once the weather warms up.

I’d love to know how long it had been since this one had played. It had a burned out coil on one of the bells that was blowing fuses. That took most of a Saturday to track down.

I’d love to find a coin slot like the one you have. Ours has a the wrong one nailed to the top of the lock bar.

Let me know if you have any questions, I look forward to seeing your progress.

Install the parts you already bought and see how you like it. I don’t think it will ever be worth 900 if you’re planning on flipping it, but if it’s fun and worth it to keep in great shape, then you have your answer.

We paid almost nothing for ours because I feared the hole could be deep on all the parts and I wasn’t even sure I’d be able to find everything. I’m well under 300 in parts at this point but our woodwork is nowhere as nice as yours and I still have to deal with light sockets. But, I’ve had it running enough to know it will be fun and is the only woodrail in our collection.

I think mine has slightly more of the original hardware on the back of the door but all the wires in that area are cut and the coin slot on the lock bar is wrong.

I figured you’d be happy with those plastics. Makes all the difference.

I ordered the 1-1/8” targets for my game after measuring the one that I had that was not curled up and it fit perfectly.

I cleaned the playfield with naphtha and hit the really bad areas with novus 2. Then I waxed it. Yours should clean up really nicely, probably with just the naphtha, then wax.

I kept my caps but had to replace the bodies, skirts, sockets, etc. I actually need to pull 4 of them back out because I swapped 2 of the skirt colors.
