Heres one of the last great SS Bally machines made in my opinion. Alot of stuff going on and great gameplay.

I got 2 of these in for restoration but i was recently able to talk the owner out of them finally, to take care of the balance on some other machines i fixed up or him.
Basicly have 2 machines to make 1 good one in the end. If i can get plastics i could prolly make 2 full machines.
Mine is warehouse fresh ATM havnt done anything to it yet realy as soon as I get the 2 current customer restorations done finally Ide like to bring it in and start working on one cant wait to play it

Heres one of the vectors i have I have one with a bally coin door and the funky international double coin door Ill obviously go with the bally door cabinet.
Its not much atm but it will be beautiful when its done.
Ill prolly do a restoration thread on it sometime down the road.
! machine was nuked internaly every coil cooked except the flippers and appears the driver board was on fire and has most traces burned off. first time Ive seen that lolvec1.jpgvec1.jpg.vec2.jpgvec2.jpgvec3.jpgvec3.jpgvec4.jpgvec4.jpgvec5.jpgvec5.jpg

Well brought vector home and set it up ok well shes pretty rough but i have a extra parts machine as well so its a matter of getting it tore down and starting the restoration process.
Playfield has some wear and damage, cabinet needs a repaint but is pretty solid and completely saveable. i do also already have a perfect set of backglasses as well for this machine 073.JPG073.JPG074.JPG074.JPG075.JPG075.JPG076.JPG076.JPG077.JPG077.JPG078.JPG078.JPG079.JPG079.JPG080.JPG080.JPG081.JPG081.JPG082.JPG082.JPG093.JPG093.JPG095.JPG095.JPG096.JPG096.JPG097.JPG097.JPG098.JPG098.JPG099.JPG099.JPG100.JPG100.JPG108.JPG108.JPG109.JPG109.JPG117.JPG117.JPG118.JPG118.JPG120.JPG120.JPG

Ok I had a extra realy nice coin door so its installed currently and since the backglass door frame was coming apart i decided to tear it apart Re-glue, clamp, add screws do the body work and spray in bc/cc also put the good glasses in it now.
I like to get the machine complete015.JPG015.JPG up and running before i start the full restoration process.018-641.JPG018-641.JPG005-706.JPG005-706.JPG009-831.JPG009-831.JPG010-304.JPG010-304.JPG011-190.JPG011-190.JPG016-626.JPG016-626.JPG013.JPG013.JPG

Quoted from clodbusterguy:

HI all I jjust joined the club, I just bought a very nice original surviver. It still has all of the original targets even! It works not too bad but just has a problem with it accepting 3 balls in the trough. It works fine with two though. Is there a setting to run it with two or three balls or is it a switch problem or mpu problem?? any ideas?

Thanks!
Tyson

Yes check the switch 31 & 32 for ball setting per game but if your trough dosnt accept all 3 balls its likely a switch issue with the ball trough or check the switches in the 3 saucers in the ball lock chamber one might be shorted.
Or the top ball switches in the ball trough might be out of adjustment.

You should post some pics of your machine

Quoted from NicoVolta:

What do the two pots adjust in the middle of the board? Did you get new roms?

The echo and delay for the reverb mod mounted on the board.
