I guess I have a reputation in my town now as I got a call to my office yesterday from a guy that needed to get a pinball machine moved out of a home in escrow and he found out about me from a member of the local real estate board. So today I came home with Mr Sinbad who needs some board repair and a little playfield TLC but otherwise is in pretty good condition. The wife is not terribly crazy about another late 70's SS but at just a little over $100 you'd be a fool to pass on it!

So far so good, I got the board trace bypassed and did a temporary hardwire of a faulty plug and the game came alive. Half the bulbs and all the high voltage fuses were blown but I did some voltage tests and got the game working after replacing the fuses. I only have 1 bad chime output so it's smooth sailing so far!

Haa haa, so true. I may be keeping this one as I haven't decided yet.

Currently working out some quirks, looks like I need to replace a sn7417n on the CPU to fix the knocker and 10's chime issue and a mps-u45 on the driver board due to a locking on target rack, other than that its plays pretty good.
