Just fixed up a nice Bowling Queen that the family is enjoying. It had lots of scoring and other mechanical issues.

1. Need to replace the green 2-3/4 lane guide with the correct White lane guide. Don't want new or it won't match the existing guides. 2. Also need one ball (white or red) for the backglass animation but definitely interested in buying a 12 ball set that might be in better shape.

Thanks!

Quoted from MarkG:

Are the balls worn, or just dirty? I think they clean up with Novus 2.

Quoted from MikeO:

Novus 2 will take care of most of the dirt on the existing balls to the point you won’t be inclined to find a full set.

Thanks for the advice guys. Cleaned up nicely with Novus. Before and after.

Quoted from jrpinball:

Actually, the white ones looked more like period bowling balls in the before photo. Nothing like nice, clean, shiny balls though.

Yeah after I cleaned them my wife said the same thing - they're supposed to look more like the before than the after. Oh well.

Looking for 4 inch bell (clam shell) typically found in Williams woodrails. PBR only has 3 and 5 inch bells. Thank you.

I have the one pictured but need another one for a Williams Rocket I'm restoring. Thanks.

Quoted from pinhead52:

i can get you a paint stencil, see if pbr will give you an unassembled blank.

PBR has a green daisy cap but looking for an original with the green tone of the original.

Looking for two original green bumper caps with Red or Blue ink. Thanks.

o-din Those would be great. I got the game with new PBR green bumpers and the other caps are original. I restored a pretty rough game from top to bottom so those would be nice. I'll pm my information. Thanks.

I may remember seeing methods for getting lettering on those white domes (maybe decals) with pretty good results. Perhaps PBR will do it?

Quoted from o-din:

These are what I've got and as you can see, one of the green ones is broken.
You can have them for the price of shipping, but I think I just bought new ones for my Rocket when I had it from PBresource, which may not be a bad idea in your case as well.[quoted image]

Thanks O-din! Received your bumper caps today and just what I needed to complete the Rocket restoration.
