I am restoring a Williams Struggle Buggies and need some pics of the score motor. Wondering if one of you could have that game and send me some pics. Would be full appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for your replies. Briehl I am still waiting for the schematic, but considering the age of the pin and comparing to other 50's Williams schematics I have, they don't have the score motor pictured and are more difficult to interpret than Gottlieb's.
O-din Thank you very much for your help. Pictures will be much appreciated. This is a not often seen pinball.
I have the schematic as well. I got it from PBresource. I'll unscrew the playfield and take some pics this weekend. Struuggle Buggies is a worthy cause for restoration. I'm just lucky I got one that doesn't need it.
I bought the schematic from Mike Pacak but I'm still waiting for it. The schematic alone can't help. Pics would be a great help as I need to build one from the zero. The game is a very nice one and in good shape and as you, I think it worths a restoration. Please use my mail address for the pics if you please. Thanks a lot.
Will do! It's a real fun game to play as well. And a real looker for sure. I had to remove and reglue all the inserts on the playfield when I shopped it out and that made all the difference in the world. Using wood glue made that an easy task.
I have all bumper caps and parts missing in the pic. The score card is not original. It's typewrited in French. Do you want it anyway?
I don't speak French so it probably wouldn't do me any good, but thanks anyway. Amazingly I was able to figure out the rules without the instruction cards.
Quoted from portugalpinball:It looks like your game has not the original bumper caps. These are the original silver/gold painted like the games seen on IPDB.
Well isn't that a bummer? I guess I'm OK with them as long as I don't spend too much time dwelling on it.
Tomorrow I should be able to get into the game and take some pics for you, but housecleaning comes first, and that's what I've been doing all day. And now it's Miller time, even though I don't drink that swill.
Thank you very much again. They look perfect. Using them and schematic I think I will have no problem in building it. Just need to find a Williams motor from that era. I have several from other brands but no Williams and are quit different.
The best pics are the ones you took in front of each stack of contacts so I can see which are open or close and the wire colors.
If not a major problem to you, I would like only 4 more pics: one of each contacts stack.
Again thank you. You gave me a great help to save this game.
