Just picked up a Firepower last week for $250. The playfield and backglass are both very good.
I just started on the boards last night. Getting rid of all the Scanbe IC chip sockets and replacing the 40 pin interconnect as well. I have already done most of the IC sockets thanks to the Hakko 808.
Then I also have the capacitor kit from Great Plains so I can get rid of all the original ones on the power board.
Have already done a complete playfield tear down, clean and rebuild. This game should be quite a show piece when finished. Glad to finally be in the club.
Some quick questions. Some of my standup tartgets are white circles, some are solid red, and some say Fire Power on them. Which ones are stock?
Also I see they left the switches on the game that are behind the standup target banks. Was this done on purpose? Because there is no way to ever hit them unless you had the original drop targets in place.
Here are some photos before the cleaning got started.
