Is it possible to install the side mirror art work without taking out the playfield? Where did you get your coin door sticker from kevin? I would like to buy one.

Yes, you can install the treasure cove side decals without lifting out the playfield. You have to remove the inside playfield support Allen head bolt, but it's easy. Coin door sticker is from

Looks beautiful Kevin! It is the perfect combination of orange and black accents. You do awesome work!

#54 11 years ago
Quoted from cleland:

Thanks, powder coated "Bengal Orange" by a great local company Andrews Powder Coating in Chatsworth So Cal.

I did do this by design. Sometimes when you powder coat a machine it becomes too much and there is no contrast to make the color pop, orange in this case. By keeping the coin door, bolts, and leg levelers in black, it makes the orange pop even more without beating you over the head with it.
Just my thoughts, thanks for the positive comments so far.
Kevin

That's exactly how I do it.

#55 11 years ago

BEAUTIFUL!- incredible work. Good luck with the remainder! I'm scared s**t to go that far on a tear down!

I'm sure someday with the right machine I'll give it a shot though.

#56 11 years ago

That is so awesome.

I don't know if I'm happier for you and the results of your work, or that game got such an awesome make over.

Thank you for sharing !

OK, an update to my restoration of my Orange IJ. It took awhile but I received the playfield back and started putting it all back together.

Playfield back in the cabinet looking good! This was a long restoration for me, but well worth the wait. Indiana Jones is alive and playing to perfection!

#62 10 years ago

wow thanks for sharing, turned out fantastic!

#63 10 years ago

what a beautiful machine, well done

#64 10 years ago

what a stunner!! Great job.

Are your orange pieces sprayed or powder coated?

#65 10 years ago

That is a nice custom IJ!
I think it looks as good if not better than a gold trimmed IJ.

#66 10 years ago

Wow! You did an incredible job on the restore. Looks amazing!

#67 10 years ago

Thanks for sharing and the results are fantastic!

#68 10 years ago

Wow. That orange is going to make a lot of people green...... with envy.

#69 10 years ago

Awesome work. That machine brings tears to my eyes. Orange is a fantastic color for it. I used a very similar orange on my Congo and I love it.

#70 10 years ago

come on now, That's a little to much orange on one machine.

#71 10 years ago

Dang...... looks awesome, thanks for sharing.

#73 10 years ago

Hotness. You're probably not gonna feel the theme of the shoes I'd wear to play it, assuming you're an LA native (I'm a Bay Area transplant) but this is what I'd rock:

Just ignore the stitching on the stripe if you need to.

#74 10 years ago

Thanks for the nice comments guys. I know the orange is not for everyone, but I really think it works with this theme and could not be happier with how it turned out.

Quoted from Hatska1:

what a stunner!! Great job.

All pieces were powder coated orange by a local company. I even did the supports and apron

Good of you to bump an old IJ resto thread ... Now I feel compelled to tear mine down and have the pf cleared.

Seriously, nice resto. So glad I didn't sell my IJ off last month.

#77 10 years ago

I know, looks great, inspiring me as well. A bit too much for me to be able to do, but it looks great! Maybe someday I will have that ability.

Wow. I'm considering a trade for my AC/DC which would get me a very nice original IJ with no fade and great pf. Had another trade lined up but the IJ was cursed so that one fell through. Powder coating orange may be something I need to consider.

Nice work.

#80 9 years ago

Great job!!! Looks Awesome. IJ is one of the best pins ever made.

Just gorgeous, very nice job! Makes me miss my old IJ

#82 7 years ago

Thanks for bumping an ancient thread. I've never seen these pictures before and now I reeeeealy want to do my IJ in orange! Looks fantastic!

#83 7 years ago

Kevin is THE MAN. He has worked on many of my games. From full shop outs to cabinet restoration...he can do it all. His work is top notch. Great guy and I'm super fortunate to know him. He has taken good care of my games for a few years now. Go Rams bump!

#84 7 years ago

Haha, when I saw this come up on page one I had to tear up. Sadly, I sold this game awhile back....but if I ever get another Indy I would do the same treatment. This game came out sweet! What a ton of work though...

What's the specific name of the orange you used? I'm going to strip my machine down and redo the cabinet next year and would looooooooooooove to do this!

Very nice pin indeed, still looks the same! If you are interested, I would sell it back to you.

How much does a pumpkin Halloween edition IJ go for
Looks really nice.

It was called "Bengal Orange"

And here's the happy new owner! I might have to PM you, glad you still have it

Quoted from pingod:

I don't even remember the selling price, but I surely didn't make anything off it since I spent like 80-100 hours fixing it up, plus all new parts.
