    Here's what you need to transport that machine to some pinball shows. My friends at Eastside Big Tom's drive thru restaurant here in Olympia, Washington own TWO of these vans. Many people take pictures of these vans.

    Some observations to point out on your machine so far:

    The backbox will need the male and female Stern quick lock units for securing the backbox in it's normal upright position as well as for lowering it for transport. This uses that big Allen wrench.

    You need to cut out a section on the lower left of the playfield for clearance of the left flipper button. The same needs to be done for the right flipper button and the ball shooter assembly so they will clear the playfield.

    I noticed you knocked off the wooden playfield supports next to the metal playfield slide support rails. Why on Earth would you do that? You need those wooden supports.

    Don't forget the playfield prop rod countersunk hole in the playfield. That's so you can prop the playfield at a better service angle for when you need to work on flippers.

    Watch where you place the speaker(s) and power transformer so that you'll be able to clear the playfield slide brackets when the playfield is in normal playing position.

    That blank coin door should have a test switch bracket mounting bracket already tack welded to the door so you can mount a test/volume/menu switch assembly to it.

    You have a great theme and I think you could have a real winner.

    The graphics on the Mystery Machine vans are vinyl wraps.

    Cliffy makes the flipper return guides:

    That cutout is for clearance of a dollar bill acceptor mounted on the coin door. If you had a bill acceptor installed that cutout allows the coin door to close fully.

    If you can wait till Monday, I can take a picture of the outhole area of our Stern Playboy. That should help you out.
