A little expensive if you only need the one...but it's an option.
ebay.com link: Partial WILLIAMS pinball plastics from Touch down from 1967

You're going to part it? You've resurrected worse.

#605 3 years ago
Quoted from DCRand:

Actually, you re correct, have resurrected worse. But everything in the back box was rusted. The back box itself was falling apart to the point of non repairable. The lower cabinet back panel was shot and the bottom of the cabinet had fallen out because the bottom slot was broken all around the cab. The back glass was mostly clear. And, sorry to say, it is not a popular game. So 6 or 8 hundred dollars later for new cabinet or major fix and new back glass, and dozens if not hundreds of hours work to get it going. And I would have a 6 or 8 hundred dollar game not many people want. So made the difficult choice. First time in the 41 games I have purchased. And hopefully the last. Have a Doodle Bug in about the same, maybe a little better shape, and it is definitely in line for fixing up.

Trust me I understand. Always respect when one is transformed from a pile of parts but it's a labor of love. After doing a few like that it can get exhausting. I'm having a hard enough time getting enough motivation to finish shopping my Ship Ahoy and it's fairly clean.

Quoted from Jahkub:

I can look at my machine and duplicate one from lexan if you're down.

That would be sweet. Thank you! PM sent.

Quoted from Murphdom:

I don’t know if you ever got one but someone sells the center plastic in the Pinside shop.

Yes! I did buy one from them. It was very nice and a good price. Pinsider Jahkub also generously offered to make me one. Seeing Upkick had it listed as available I just went ahead with that. As frustrating as Pinside can be at times stuff like this is a great reminder it can also be an excellent resource.
