Couldn’t leave this Pinbot stranded. Saw this posted for only $150. Hopefully it’s not completely trashed. Looks like it’s been in a garage for a while.

All play field parts are supposedly there but they said the CPU might have acid damage.

I’ll post more pics when I pick it up tomorrow evening! This is going to be my first pinball project.

I’ll take some better pictures tomorrow

Thanks for the replies! Gonna try my best to get Pinbot working again. Pinside should help for that.

That’s good news on the topper, hoping it’s not dry rotted to a crisp.

I’m curious about the legs being so rusted, wonder if they were left outside and the pin was put inside. This is about an hour southeast of Raleigh so not very close to the ocean.

Getting excited for tomorrow!

Got Pinbot! Better condition than I thought. Will post more pictures in a little bit.

Glad nobody stole Pinbot, definitely got excited and jumped the gun telling Pinside. Lesson learned

Looks like the playfield is in pretty good condition for sitting in a barn garage for the last 6 years. All the plastics are there and not cracked.

The rubbers are dry rotted as expected and there is some alkaline damage. The owner did take the batteries out when he saw them leaking years ago. I have only cleaned the glass and the translite.

Haven’t turned it on yet but the owner said it did work years ago but had switch problems. Or problems from the batteries leaking. I’m going to read up before I attempt to turn it on.
