Quoted from tomdrum:Multiple projects from the same seller on Mr Pinball today:
Circus, 1980 Gottlieb: $950
Super widebody project machine. Nice playfield + decent second playfield. Some parts missing from each, but together you'll have all the parts (but only 1 has a rototarget). Additional NOS plastic set. Cabinet decent, boards rough (I'd buy a pi-80 x4 to replace them.) 2 backglasses - one has crazing, still nice; one has flaking, just Okay.

Disco Fever, 1978 Williams: $1000
Project machine. Mostly repopulated NOS clearcoated playfield, looks gorgeous. Reasonable mirrored backglass - a 7 or 8/10. Extra plastic set. 2 NOS sets of banana flipper rubbers. Complete board set, unknown condition. Plus, a whole additional machine that students rewired to work under computer control (no boards, custom backglass - think parts only) last used at the 2006 Allentown pinball show. Between the two you should be able to assemble a really beautiful machine.

Flash, 1978 Williams: $1250
Project machine. Blank NOS playfield clearcoated 10+ years ago, probably should be reshot; perfect NOS backglass; second, serviceable backglass; cabinet in good shape; stencil set for repainting cabinet; board set, condition unknown; mostly stripped beater playfield; loose playfield parts, harness; plastics missing right slingshot. Has spent over a decade in storage - needs reassembly and a careful going over. Likely something minor is missing, but with a NOS playfield + backglass, this could be a beautiful machine.

Haunted House, 1982 Gottlieb: $1000
A hot mess of a project machine. One cabinet, decent shape. Two upper playfields, two main playfields, one lower playfield, all completely stripped and retouched - Okay repaint but not for close examination. I'd rate from 6-8/10. All playfield parts are loose; not positive they are all there but they were boxed up. Since there is only one lower field, that's the weak link. New replacement spiderweb plastic. Lots of playfield plastics, but maybe not a full set (although some are NOS). Full board set, unknown condition. Backglass is fair; some delaminating, taped I think. Second NOS backglass has giant flaking from storage; am trying not to cry over it. Priced so I don't have to fuss with this- add time and money and you'll come out ahead.

Mars God of War, 1981 Gottlieb: $950
Project machine. Good cabinet and playfield; nice double paned backglass; extra plastics set, but one chipped. Complete set of boards but missing game ROM, will need repair (I'd buy a pi-80 x4 and be done with it.)
