Anyone have a back door for 4 player Bally (for a Fireball EM)? Please PM me.

Thanks.

#4103 5 years ago

Hey Everyone, I'm looking for a replacement leaf that's used in the score motor cam assembly on my Target Alpha. I found a picture of a score motor cam wheel from a gottlieb (not from my machine) the leaf I'm looking for is like the one shown in this picture: http://www.pinrepair.com/em/gtbsmotor1.jpg
It is in the stack labeled "1", its the leaf closest to (over top of) the cam wheel and is long and has a bend near the end and would be closed by a post on the score motor cam wheel when it goes by.

Thanks, Mike

Sand the face of the target. Fill it with white paint, a couple of layers just to cover the ball wear. You can order new decals from Pinball Rescue in Australia. Have done the repair on my 'Hi Dolly, with great success.

I need the actual metal target assembly. Getting one just like pictured would be great. I don't need the painted image as I can handle that.

Need the knob on a ball lift rod like the one pictured for a Williams woodrail (or a lift rod with the knob attached)

Lemme look when I get home. I think I have a sunburst, but not sure of shape. Actually, It will have the hole in it, so I think you are out of luck.

#4111 5 years ago

i have 3 volleys and 4 volley plastic sets. i need the left sling plastic to make 3 good sets. really hate to buy a new set for one plastic.

#4112 5 years ago
Quoted from boilerman:

There's been a partial set on ebay for quite a while now. It has the left sling.

For $60 plus shipping, you might as well buy new at that price

#4114 5 years ago
Quoted from pinhead52:

you are right, for a few bucks more you would have a new complete set.

i did find one, no need for a new set

#4115 5 years ago
Quoted from pinhead52:

That's what I did.

the ad's been there a long time, maybe he'd split up the set.

Anyone have a good to decent out of sight back glass?

Anyone have any extra bonus balls for the backbox of a 300 or Top Score? Just obtained a nice TS but it's missing one bonus ball...

If you don't find one at Pinfest, PM me and I will send one your way.

#4121 5 years ago

Try using some Novus 2 on those bonus balls. What a difference.

#4122 5 years ago
Quoted from D-Gottlieb:

I did the same on the Bally's "All the Way" balls and surrounding area (but used lemon pledge), and it made
all the difference..

#4123 5 years ago

Anyone have a good-condition yellow drop target from a Fast Draw or Quick Draw? I broke one on one of my QD's. I know Steve has them new, but thought I'd start here.

Also looking for two "1000 Points When Lit" bumper caps in blue for a Gottlieb King Pin.

#4124 5 years ago

Looking for an original back metal door for a mid 70's Bally 2 player for my Hokus Pokus. Already have a wood one, just like original parts when I can find them. PM me with condition and price.

TIA

#4125 5 years ago

Looking for some help finding a part number to search for or a suitable substitute.

On my replay unit for a Gottlieb Playball - there's a strip of bakelite sandwiched in between the three switches.
When I got the machine, it was on free play, but this had been accomplished by maxing out the credit wheel, and the cranking it some more. The peg that opens the max credit switch had pressed up against the bakelite separator to the point that it cracked and was closing the switch that opens when the replay unit is in the zero position.

Like this.
IMG_3441 (resized).JPGIMG_3441 (resized).JPG

I've long since cleaned it up and have the machine on free play with the credit wheel at 0. But that bakelite strip is hanging by a thread. No real need to replace it I suppose, but it bugs me a little.
max-credit-bakelite (resized).jpgmax-credit-bakelite (resized).jpg

Any idea on where to find a replacement? Looked through a load of PBR pages but didn't see what I was looking for. Or is this a "Just give Steve a call and he'll sort you out" situation?

#4126 5 years ago
Quoted from Beatnik-Filmstar:

Or is this a "Just give Steve a call and he'll sort you out" situation?

Not really sure but it could be one of the following. A-8518 2 inch long bakelite, or A-2463 1 9/16 inches long bakelite.

#4127 5 years ago
Quoted from Beatnik-Filmstar:

i am sure i have one on an old stepper. pm me and i will send it to you

#4128 5 years ago
Quoted from boilerman:

Thanks again.

In the meantime, I did find that Steve sells "link material" on his tools page.
http://www.pbresource.com/tools.html
Wrong dimensions but right thickness - I could cut what I need and drill holes I'm sure.

#4129 5 years ago

Just cut an old flipper plunger bakelite or wood. Plexiglass would also work.( think old williams will work.just a thought.drill holes.

#4130 5 years ago

Also for thickness .use auto gasket material( construction paper type).thats what I use between switch blades,flipper switches ,ect..comes in roll.better than factory .

#4131 5 years ago

Well, boilerman found one for me so it's all a moot point. Thanks for the ideas.

Pinsiders are too nice sometime. Just noticed my heart turned gray again, so let's get that thing red.

#4132 5 years ago

Looking for several things:

1. One (1) yellow drop target for a Quick Draw / Fast Draw

2. Two (2) white bowling pin targets for a King Pin / Pin Up

3. Black plastic switch cover for bottom-inside of cabinet (GTB)

PM me if you have any of these. Thank you! I can order the drop targets but -- especially on the white bowling pins -- prefer ones that are not quite as bright-white as the new ones.

Mark

#4133 5 years ago

Anyone know where I might be able to find a red, opaque, smooth, 1 3/16 inch post like those shown in photo below?

I haven’t inquired at PBR but don’t see them listed/shown on the PBR website.

Thanks!

Hello. I am looking for a Ball shooter assembly for a Genco 1948 Screwball. I know it is 84 pages long topic and did not read all pages yet so i give it a try this way.

Quoted from goldenboy232:

3. Black plastic switch cover for bottom-inside of cabinet (GTB)

when they started using the on/off switch instead of the kick switch they did NOT have the plastic cover. the only started using the in 72 i think. so depends on the title but your game may not need it. but for safety i would

I have a decent OUT OF SIGHT glass. If you still need one let me know, I can send pictures of front and back.

#4138 5 years ago

This is something that is long overdue... but I wanted to say 'thank you' to boilerman on this public site for all the parts and help he has given me over time. And for all the other people he has done the same. I'm sure I'm not the first to do this but that's okay, it couldn't be done enough. He is an asset to this hobby... and just people in general.

Thanks, Boilerman -- it's for a '73 King Pin, so would have one, presumably. Pinhead52 (Ken) hooked me up via text with a guy at Allentown who is going to help me out with the switch cover once he gets home from the show. Maybe the drops targets too!

Shoot me pm to remind me to look for those targets - I might have one or both.

thanks Glen, but you know i don't do it for the accolades, i enjoy helping other when i can. It isn't about the $$$ it is about the great EM hobby and the great people in it.

I need a decent Sweet Hearts backglass mine is badly flaking.

#4147 5 years ago
Quoted from 1974DeltaQueen:

These have always been hard to find. I know its probably for your project game, hard to justify a Ron Webb glass:

CRATE ON THE WAY. The titles will be Jacks Open, Dimension & Sweethearts. If interested get on the reserve list by
emailing me. I will not increase the quantities I have ordered (12) of each title.

Hey gang,

Anyone happen to have an extra Gottlieb backbox lock plate they wouldn't mind selling?
This is for a Flipper Cowboy wedgehead, but I'm guessing it's pretty much universal.

Thanks!
