Had to share, I bought a Yukon Special about 2 months ago from a barn. It hadnt been powered on in over a decade, and it showed.

I will post some before pics, but I am excited right now.

My buddy came over to help lift everything into place and help me think through any last issues that cropped up, but we got it done! It plays 100% correctly!

This thing was a complete mess, the cabinet had gouges in it, it was rusted, the playfield was covered in crap.

Ill put together some nice pics of before and after for comparison tomorrow night or this week. I put about 200 hours into it, which I know is way more than you should ever put into an old cheap EM machine, but I really enjoyed doing it.

F-14 is next on the stands. Pinsider Whridlsoncestood is redoing the playfield for that one currently. I am about to start on the cabinet. Gonna enjoy Yukon Special for a few days first though.

Here are just two pics that show the front of the machine before and after. All the hardware (coin door, legs, etc..) are original to the machine, I had just already removed them when I took the first before shot.

Thanks to all of the suggestions I found on here, this thing came out pretty dang nice.
