Every ramp is new. Every switch is new. Every rubber is new. 90% of screws nuts bolts are NEW.
Forgot to yank that green led BALLS! lol

You could eat of this thing. This is how a game should look when advertised as shopped!

Looks great. Is it yours or did you do it for somebody else? Let me know if you need to sell it to make room for an X-MEN.

New ramps is a bit more than "shopped" haha.

Shopped means 457 different things to different people.

Looks nice..pictures are grainy and dark though...

Why do switches and screws have to be new? I'm confused!

But it looks nice

#10 11 years ago

Looking good but still would not eat off a any pinball machine, especially when its that clean

that's restored in my book, not shopped.

shopped, for me, means it functions 100% and could go on location without worry. This machine is far above that.

#14 11 years ago

Of course if someone wants to drop off a ij4 or wms ij they can have wh20.

This is not restored lol. Restored means cleared pf new cab art if needed. Harness washed etc etc etc.

#15 11 years ago

Its a partial restoration.

If you put new parts into a machine that part, area , etc is "restored" to how it was new.

Shopped is " just clean it and make it work 100%"

Just my lil ole opinion

#16 11 years ago

Makes me wish i sprang for those new ramps at pinfest!

#17 11 years ago

No money left for a brand new camera too much money spent on ramps. =-)

Looks nice. Good to see more wifes involved. Enjoy your fresh new game.

Regrain the ball guides?

Some i need to get a few pieces some had broken tabs. Looking into just dropping 1,700 on a new cab. Rick does not have decals yet though. Base is in decent shape. Head needs a rework.

I'd restore before buying new but that's just me. Here's my wH2O..

Nice i still have to tackle cleaning the under side somehow. I might just wait and if i keep it i will sand it down.

#24 11 years ago

The only way to do it is strip everything off. In lieu of your shop job I would wait until you swap in a new field. Not worth it after the work you have already done. Mine will be leaving soon for a WOZ.

bumping this up as it looks like its leaving in the am. Final video of how it turned out and just what 30 hours of your life and dedication can achieve. Sad to see it go but a good deal was offered so its off to its new owner. Shame this game does not get the credit it deserves. If any game should be 9-12g its Wh20 not boring afm, mm.

#26 11 years ago

Sweet

I am in two minds as to whether to restore my WH20 but new ramps on it look awesome!!

B_R that look does not work for me on wh20. I like leds too but I like Wh20 and Tspp left stock.

Thats how the game looked when it got here and i actually threw up in my mouth a little. But i had just ate a jelly donut

#29 11 years ago

I've put off starting my WH20 restore until we got moved into the new home. Well, I made it. I've already bought my playfield, ramps, boulders, targets, cabinet/head decals, topper dome, and plastics. I just need to get to stripping down the old stuff and putting on the new. It's intimidating, but I'm excited.

Beautiful stuff, OP!
