I guess I'll throw one post out before I wire it myself, need a Gottlieb King Pin bottom board. Missing some parts would be fine if necessary.

Need top glass ?rail for Jack in the Box, the metal piece at the top of the playfield below the lightbox into which the glass slides when fully positioned in place.

The L shaped stainless steel bracket? Thats a pretty conman part. How about the U channel that holds it inplace? Ive got both if you want to PM me.

I've got a Recel Criterium '75 which is basically a barn find. I need to replace this relay coil that operates PF illumination. 9500 is all it has for identification.

Jimmy at Pinball Resource said they didn't have it, but told me to email John at flippers.com. I did, but I didn't hear back from him. It looks like he has a replacement, but it was put on the website in 2011.

https://www.flippers.com/catalog/product_info.php/coil-a35950-yellow-p-2748

I thought that the information listed on that page "Coil A35-950 - YELLOW Model: 050-002. Alternate # 9.500" might lead me to a replacement coil from a different manufacturer, but I haven't had any luck.

Does anyone know of a suitable replacement? Thanks!

Hi

Wanted to Buy

Left Slingshot Plastic for Bally Gator / Alligator

Message me if you can help me out

Thank you all

How does that even happen? Either way.......I have one! It's out of a satin doll. Pm me with address and such. Part is free, shipping is not. If you need anything elts from this lmk and I will ship together.

You can see in these pictures what is missing from Jack in the Box and what I need (in the Quick Draw pic)

Yes, 2 pieces, L bracket and U channel. I get the U channel rechromed back to original. plus 6 screws, 4 long and 2 short, then there is the bear seal used as a glass stop... (ignore the red paint, will clean off before shipping)

The Recel parts catalog shows a Vari Target that looks an awful lot like the Gottlieb Vari Target. I think they used Gottlieb parts. (Anyone know for sure?)

Vari Targets use a relay to hold and release the target.

Anyway, your 9500 coil was used in the Recel Vari Target. Gottlieb used an A-9740 in theirs. If you can't find a 9500, an A-9740 might be worth a try.

/Mark

Comparing the Recel parts catalog to the Gottlieb catalog was really clever. I would not have thought of that. I ordered an A-9740 this morning, and I'll report back about the results. Thanks, MarkG!

Heh. The downside of boilerman being too nice all the time:
You get the little bakelite piece he offered you. Then two weeks later you get even more mail.
IMG_3737 (resized).JPG
I assure you it's super confusing when you get your mail and a name you don't really recognize has sent you pinball parts seemingly at random.

Hey waltrr or boilerman - if either of you would PM me waltrr's address I'll gladly get this back in the mail on it's way.

i sent that, i sent a bunch of parts out and must of mix up addresses?
instead of shipping it back to me i will pm you the person it was ment to go to.... sorry normally i am pretty organized. i have been working 70 hrs a week and it does catch up to you.

Oh - didn't take too much to figure out what had happened. But yeah - you sent me waltrr's lock plate by mistake.
PM his address and I'll send it on it's way.

Showing the goodness in the hobby.

I am in search of a plastic insert from a 1950s Gottlieb (see photo below). PBR has something similar but it is a tad smaller in diameter (not sure about height). These go in the apron area to indicate balls played or gobbled and appear to be relatively common for the era. One can be seen in the photo of a 1954 playfield below. The dimensions are 13/16” in diameter and 3/8” in height. Anyone have any from a parted machine or know of any potential sources? Thanks for any leads!

I am also looking for a couple of slotted playfield screws like the one shown in the following screw photo that I assume are common screws on 1950s Gottliebs that attach plastics/posts (see photo of playfield). Apparently these aren’t even available new as my good local hardware shop doesn’t have anything close (even in Phillips) and I can’t find them with the google. They are #6, oval, slot screws, 1-3/4” in length. Thanks! I could also use six of the #8, oval, slot screws that attach the playfield to the cabinet if someone has a bunch of playfield screws they’d like to sell.

School season is almost over

Hey, I've seen that part somewhere before
All good. S#it happens and all that boilerman does for everyone around here, it's amazing he gets anything else done.

Thank you

they graduated last sat.

Not sure if this is where to ask but looking for the instruction cards for a 1966 Chicago coin kicker. Even just pictures and i could make them myself. Nothing on Google pics and here is enough resolution to read.

The major difference between wood and sheet metal is the length of the threads. Sheet metal is fully threaded.

Thanks for the info on the screws newmantjn!

french gottlieb circa 1964 coin entrance plate.

Hi all. In need of a copy or original instruction and pricing cards for a WMS Gusher.
Thx

I have a label for this style coin plate on a FarOut game but this is a 70's style

Hey Tony
I have a Sweet Hearts with the toasted playfield that I hope to skin someday that I mentioned to you years back. It came out of Quebec and may have that piece. I will take a look when I get back home this weekend and will shoot you a pic.

Just a warning - parts are free but I only ship by personal delivery so the air-fare may make it pricey!!

Cheers

Tom

The Canadian in me suggests that Quebec was apart of Canada althou we wish they wernt back then

Check the Projects thread there is one for sale.

The A-9740 relay coil isn't as tall as the 9500 coil, but it does work. I tried using a washer to make up for lost length, but it buzzed like no other. The roll over switch on the playfield that activates this coil needs a longer connection than the other two to work, but that is better than not working at all.

cant find it?

Here possibly?

Looking for a backglass for a 1970 Gottlieb Mini-Cycle. The original is suffering from heavy flaking.

Looking for WMS Gusher instruction cards.
thx

Need (1) Far Out / Out of Sight drop target, otherwise I'll have to replace them all (since a new one won't match)! Anyone?

In case you can’t find an original, surprisingly, the new yellow drop targets are a damn close match to the originals.

I would replace them all. Did that with Volley. Not fun. Same amount of labor I would think.

Well, technically no more than half -- since I wouldn't have to touch the second bank of targets. I went a little over budget on the machine purchase, so I was trying to see if I could save on parts. Rather than $40 for all new ones, presumably just a few bucks for one.

Really? Hmm. Tempting to try just one ... we'll see how much my next parts order turns out to be...

I have 1 used one I can sell. Bob

Note the wear line from ball contact.

If you still need this, PM me your info and I will send a couple of these your way.

Thanks SirScott -- I'm getting the one from bob_e. If I need more (though I certainly hope not!), I'll definitely follow up with you!

Looking for a 68/69 Bally Set of Apron Cards for my Bally Gator

Thanks !!

Sorry Tony. Checked the Sweet Hearts and an op had riveted a metal plate on to the piece with the price increase of 1 play per -- cracked the part in all directions. Hope another can help ye along.

Cheers

Looking for decent used Egghead backglass.

Looking for Gottlieb Gypsy Queen score and instruction cards.
Thanks!

Anyone have an extra plastic insert from an early to mid-1950s Gottlieb that is used to keep track of balls played/gobbled (as in following photos)? They are 13/16” in diameter and 3/8” in height (and I only need one).

Thanks and sorry for the low res pics!

Looking for a power switch for my 1977 Gottlieb Lucky Hand. The switch stopped working yesterday. Not sure if that's fixable (haven't had one go bad before) or if I just need to replace with a new one and re-solder the wires.
