Quoted from spiroagnew:

I knew the lockdown bar was gonna cost me, but dip my balls in sweet cream and squat me in a kitchen full of kittens I didn't think it was gonna cost THIS much. If any Pinside EM pilgrim has one to spare, let me know...I'll put the money in your pocket.
If it ain't clear, I'm going ahead and trying and bring this hot mess back to life.

how much were they asking?

the one piece bar with pins is a hard one to find. 150 is a bit high but not uncommon.
i have purchased parts machines for just the bar.

Quoted from MikeO:

Watch for a later model shark fin style lock bar at a fair price along with a shark fin style receiver and update your game for probably half or less of what the button style lock bars are supposedly fetching.

mike you might note that some cabinet modification is required

there is nothing more satisfying then bring a game back from the dead. I am sure you learned a lot along the way. now find another basket case!
well done!
