#3038 7 years ago

Phil,did you check xmission pinball parts online ,parts for sale list.I think I seen where guy has a bunch back panels.try there.don't remember how long ago he posted.but I wish you good luck.

#3042 7 years ago

Markg.have you thought about modifying new bumper body's and caps.or are you looking for total orig look.I know pbr has a long list of pics for caps.I would try to modify body from dead bumper body, I think they are called, and cut bottom off gottlieb skirts.I would call pbr about caps.

#3043 7 years ago

Markg,forgot to mention ,if body has to be certain color.that fusion paint for plastic is sweet.it won't peel.glossy look.

#3045 7 years ago

Markg,it is krylon fusion spray paint.can get it at walk mart,hardware.ect.all colors.

#3046 7 years ago

Markg,also I see what you mean. That seems like a frustrating part to find.same with 10 step units I'm looking for. Ha ha.if your luck has been like mine lately, we are both up s creek.ha ha.I have to laugh at myself sometimes to have patience.

#3048 7 years ago

Markg,to maybe get you on right path.I hope.ha ha.contact Doug at vintage pinball [email protected] ,he maybe be able to help.

#3050 7 years ago

Wicked,thought I seen them on eBay.also you can get stickers made at office depot.transparent or white backing.whatever.then get plexiglass and cut them using scroll saw.if I knew what size I could cut you some and send them to you.I made some for my flash Gordon,did not like origs.

#3051 7 years ago

I got these sticks fro redbubble.com.scroll from harbor freight.

#3104 7 years ago

Hey hoov,12.00 each at pin resource.he he.after seeing prices for those new.I cleaned my old ones too.ha ha .play field of what I can see looks awesome.old Williams I'm guessing.I see a little red missing around pop bumper.advice.get some sharpies permanent markers.come in all gott ,Williams colors.they make them in all colors.Walmart ect.will have them.then if color is slight off.wax will blend them.works good for little spots.won't guarantee for big spots.but fixed a few of mine a lot better than what I had.after waxing in I couldn't tell it had been touched up.example.used them to touch up scuffs around pool balls .ect.looks a lot better.

IMG_20170117_192010 (resized).jpgIMG_20170117_192010 (resized).jpg

#3107 7 years ago

Hey hoov ,I figured you were looking for orig.just most are faded or warped for parts.but when seen play field.spot it got me thinking about touch up.thought everyone would like to know touch up trick if they weren't hip to it yet.can I ask what game you have.colors look very vibrant.hard to believe spot as good as your colors look.

#3109 7 years ago

Hi breihl.my bad.no don't clear coat at all.just use wax.I never clear coat a play field unless I'm putting down mylar overlay.another topic.I just clean and wax orig.I could not tell diff in any plastic parts I have purchased from pbr.I'm just glad new parts are available. I would not take up this hobby if not.and let's face it .these games are average 40-50 years old.most of these kids today never seen but a few .and the play fields are what they are.I say do what you have to do to make them pretty and working.I understand orig is important to some.and I can respect that.but personally.if I could only go orig.I would not enjoy this hobby.or would I be satisfied with ugly piece of junk for my money.and if your married ,you may have Ali vs Frazier on the lawn before you can buy another.he .he.just saying.ha ha.

#3111 7 years ago

Hey,alexf.can you tell me what are DC pops.never heard of them.

#3117 7 years ago

That just gave me idea( light bulb). Flash flash.I had some made at office depot.he has all diff materials. I used d it to make a plastic set for my flash Gordon.also p m hoov on those caps.he can add color to trim platters.thank you .it proves sometimes two heads are better than one.I'm liking that idea.have office depot color a sheet of same material.cut to fit.

#3120 7 years ago

I'm thinking about having some made.called off depot.same guy still works there.he said he could ,no problem.will update subject as soon as we see finished product.

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 .

#4632 5 years ago

Ya,but had you read my forum.you can see he still has not helped.that is bally wireing.i don't know why it is so difficult to show me correctly the first time I asked.you people come on here with fake accounts with no intentions but to derail others forums and promise parts ,then leave them hanging.just butt out and I will get proper help somewhere else.

#4639 5 years ago

Ha ha,I can see you guys gang on people here.you never had any intention of showing me wiring above eyelets on gottlieb em.my machine is missing that wiring.again if anyone can show me wiring ,including sockets,much appreciated.

#4642 5 years ago

Hee,hee ,ha,ha.yes,does anyone have the wiring above eyelets in previous post they would like to sell,sockets included.or pic to copy (make one).again thanks.hee ,hee.is that clear and meet your grammar standards,proffessor.

#4655 5 years ago

Ya,and to you to,I offered to buy the harness if you would read post.he was baitin me.

#4659 5 years ago

Hi pinhead,sorry if i was not clear.when I bought machine ,it was missing outside coin slot.i guess they disconnected the wires at eyelets.i don't have that part of harness to coin chutes ,or coin slot outside cover. ( see pic).would be willing to purchase though.but was hoping if I had pic ,and it was just a couple wires and sockets I could make it myself.either way.

#4668 5 years ago

Why don't you mellow out pacman.if you would read thread ,a lot of it was just joking around.me and Ken are making deal.why is it so personal to you.and as far as flake.you sure it's not you.you seem to take it awful personally.

#4688 5 years ago

Hi,is it possible to hone out cylinder.also,I do not know how inside looks,spring,rubber wheel cylinder cup.?.another idea.look on sides of carburators,80s 90s vehicles.i remember big choke mechs that look similar.same style arm that slides back and forth.use there housing or sliding arm.just a thought.but if you can take apart and show inside.i think everyone can help better.come on pinsiders ,I think together ,we can do this.merry christmas.
