Looking for early 50’s Gottlieb red rollover buttons that are in better shape than these. I realize that new ones are available but I am trying to keep this game in original condition and would like them to match the overall game condition.

Thanks!

Quoted from Catch86:

How about make your own? Did you see the "Common Switch Parts" section at PBR?

Yes, Thanks! Hoping someone has an original, but I may have to go that route if all else fails. Noticed they don’t have a DIY switch blade with the side lugs.

Hoping someone out there has the switch, or even an entire score reel assembly.

Hey guys, I’m looking for the plastic resonator box for a chime unit. Here’s a pic for reference that I grabbed off the web.

Quoted from energeticalz:

Anyone have one of these EOS switches from an early 60s Williams score reel (the metal drum style)? No luck at PBR. Thanks!!!
Blades have side tabs.
Total length of long blade 2”
Total length of shorter blade 1 5/8”
Lifter/pad on end is around 1/16 thick

I checked a 1960 score reel I have and it has some side mount switches but they appear to be more levels than yours. I also have a set of 1963 score reels from a 63 p/b .. I can’t quite see in them to see the exact switch. I’ll get a better look and get back with you

Thanks!!! Fingers crossed! My game is also a 1963 game.
Here is a photo of one of these switches mounted to the flange of the score reel plate/frame...

Wow .. that is a hard switch to find. They must have updated those score reels every year. And it is only on certain reels in 63 too. Here you go

Eureka!!! That’s the one! PM sent!!

An elusive switch for sure. I have another game made just a year later and the entire score reel mech design had completely changed.

Thanks so much for your help!

Quoted from nomo:

Looking for a 50’s Bally 10 cent coin mech, for a shuffle bowler. I have a few of the parts in the first photo. It also says United on it. Second photo is what it should look like. I also am looking for the foul line metal bar as shown in last photo. Bally Mystic or Magic Shuffle Bowlers. PM me if you can help. Thanks!
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Didn’t find a foul bar as circled in this photo, So I made one out of polished stainless steel.

Edit 12/3 - it’s going to pinhead52...

I still have this Gottlieb EM coin door minus the outer skin. I sent pinhead52 a message but if anyone else wants it just pay for shipping.

Quoted from EEE:

Does anyone need parts from a Gottlieb EM (Centigrade 37) door? I should have an outer skin in decent condition as well (In storage).

Super! I just spent $65 on ebay but I'll save that for another project. What I really need is the eject system and the coin mech holders but I'll take the whole assy.

Funny about 2 months ago somebody was looking for the eject assy and I sent him what i had. And wouldnt you know a month later I get a game in where it is missing... But this is a great community, I try to give back more than I get...

Seeking the following:
Gottlieb Dancing Lady - Red 10x playfield insert
Williams Super Star - 2 White caps for the out lane posts
Williams Supense - Bonus Wheel plastic without burn marks

#7018 3 years ago
Quoted from Bad-Sir-Ivan:

Williams Super Star - 2 White caps for the out lane posts

I used to make these a long time ago and sell them to Marco and PBR specifically for Banzai Run (a lot more expensive now). But they work perfectly on Super Star. They're not white, but they actually look better than the white inside the red star.

Did you find your red rollovers and are any of your white sockets broken?

#7020 3 years ago

I’ve been hoarding this little part for a while with the intention of repurposing for our Stern Nine Ball. I’m no longer planning on doing so.

I believe (not certain though) it’s original to a Williams Liberty Bell, Grand Prix and likely others.

Make me an offer.

It’s a red rectangular stand up target.

Quoted from waltrr:

I am still looking for original red rollovers.

By white sockets, I assume you mean the plastics in the gobble holes? A couple of mine are cracked on the inside. Would be interested in originals of these as well.

Still looking for an original, matching lockdown bar! Not convinced this one is correct based on fit and finish.

I was asking about the white inserts the red rollovers are in. I can help you with the red rollovers, I have some NOS stock,
just checking to see if you're sockets are still good.

Anybody have a caster receiver for a 1956 Gottlieb Gladiator? Or a few? I’m missing one, and two others look shredded and crumbling from rust.

This is only my second woodrail, but I’d imagine these particular wooden legs and receivers were also used on other Gottliebs.

Isn't that just a standard Tee Nut?

#7026 3 years ago

Yes, standard tee nut and you can use regular levelers. Something charming about the old style though...

#7027 3 years ago
Quoted from MarkG:

Ironically, shortly after I posted that I was pulling into Lowe’s. It looked slightly different than a normal tee nut at a glance, but I had grabbed these anyway. Should work. Thanks fellas.

I’ll be checking back in here as I start going through this thing.

Anybody know how the hell to get this backglass out without removing the top triangular braces inside?

Even when I flap the light panel down, it’s still hitting the supports up top. Not much leeway to angle it. Molding on the front has nowhere to be removed either.

I thought it would come out like the glasses do on a wedgehead.

#7033 3 years ago

Can the bottom of the glass move towards the rear a little then drop down into a slot allowing you to rotate the top out (carefully)?

I am having a hard time finding parts for a 1948 Chicago coin pinball. PBR and Marco do not seem to have much. In particular I am looking for 1/2" coil stops for kickout and flipper coils. Also some of the coils are not easy to find. Any suggestions for parts. I've even had to manufacture some of my parts so far.

I’m looking for the wiper on the Advance stepper for a Flipper Pool. If no one has the exact piece, I’m sure a similar shaped wiper from another game would work, I would just have to reconfigure the fingers. If anyone has a good photo, that would be appreciated too. Thanks

Only $137 plus shipping from pbr, what more could you want?

Watch ebay, occasionally there is a deal there. I take doors and get them rechromed for $60 then add them to a job for $80. But when they have been drilled cant rechrome and I just toss.

That is always an option, and may end up having to go that way since when they drilled the cabinet they drilled out a bit of the door frame as well.
