Got my white whale today:
White Water!!
Looks great next to my FT.
Both were expertly restored to perfection and they are dreamy.
Quoted from jawjaw:Nice WH2O! FT and WH2O go so good together. Love how all the boulders are lit. Did the same to mine. I highly recommend ocd boards if you do not already have them since WH2O uses a lot of dimming effects.
Thanks for the recommendation. I have the LED OCD in FT and one in my shopping cart on the LED OCD website for Whitewater lol. I've also got the missing mountain mod coming and I'm planning on getting the skull mod as well. Also considering the Bigfoot spotlight.
I'm very stoked to own WH20 now. It wasn't even listed on pinside, I just happened to check in on the seller of my FT to see what he was up to and I noticed he had been selling used parts for WH20. We negotiated a price, did a socially distant purchase, and here we are! I'll definitely be doing business with him again.

i had a restored WH2O and they are beautiful. Fresh chrome trim on those new blue decals looks amazing. I sold it and just picked up a players WH2O. Fun game but not worth restored prices, but I missed it enough to get a player back.

That's a nice pair! I had both together once too. Congrats.

Logically I agree that it's not worth the restored price. But the heart wants what it wants.
Not what I usually pick up, but traveled to a Friend's and gave him some pretty hard to get parts and
a few hours of time and he rewarded me with a couple small toys.
The Seeburg Nichol Coin Changer I'm going to restore and put next to the Mills Nichol Slot machine..

Slick coin changer

I know, I have been there. It is one of the best looking machines once restored in my opinion.
Williams 69’ Gridiron pitch and bat. Guy that sold me the shuffle bowling for $50.00 said I could just have his “pinball machine.” So we just picked it up.

that's lagniappe
Quoted from PoBoyPinball:that's lagniappe
Had to look that up and yes you are right.
Quoted from eagle18:Looks like some good ol’ pins in there too!
That room was meant to be for more machines to be gone through and set up, but the
overflow ended up in there, but someday I plan on having working machines set up in
there.
Quoted from edward472:Slick coin changer
Yea, never knew before this one Seeburg made a coin changer. It gives nickels for quarters
and dimes. It came with the metal base also. For not being a large machine, it's pretty heavy..
Quoted from bssbllr:Williams 69’ Gridiron pitch and bat.
Good deal! I know a few people that enjoy playing that game..
Getting this out of that nook, up 12 steps sideways out of a basement and into my car by myself was really fun.
And picked up another goodie in the box.

Wow never seen a Contact the PF color and layout looks fantastic. I just get the feeling that is a fun game.

It’s like that space was designed for a pin
Quoted from bssbllr:Williams 69’ Gridiron pitch and bat.
Dang looks like it is in pretty damn good shape by the looks of the PF.
Quoted from RWH:Dang looks like it is in pretty damn good shape by the looks of the PF.
Thanks, I think the worst of it was the flaking paint on the back glass.
Quoted from delt31:It’s like that space was designed for a pin
Her husband passed away, but he had built that nook just for the game 20 years ago. Crazy. What a waste of the cabinet art.
Quoted from RWH:Dang looks like it is in pretty damn good shape by the looks of the PF.
It’s in excellent shape. Cab has a few dings, and BG has a few minor scratches.
Quoted from yfz450:Contact is boring!
Funny. Your wife told me the same thing when I was up at your house a couple months ago. Rest assured, I showed her it wasn’t.
Quoted from delt31:It’s like that space was designed for a pin
Yeah... By someone who HATES nudging
Quoted from bssbllr:Thanks, I think the worst of it was the flaking paint on the back glass.
It’s not that bad. I’ll be able to touch it up. For a rarely seen game, it’s a respectable glass.

It’s not as fun when you don’t get the play on words.

I always wanted one of those Vendo coin changers, but I can never justify the cost
Quoted from yfz450:I’m in an incoherent state.
I've driven the freeways of Pa. I have to agree with you.

Jeez - would be pretty tough to get a good slapshot in with the pin in that nook. Not sure my gorilla hands would even fit in there.
Quoted from Colsond3:And picked up another goodie in the box.
Quoted from gdonovan:Wondering that myself.
Quoted from edward472:I always wanted one of those Vendo coin changers, but I can never justify the cost
I'm not so much into coin changers, so I looked up the Vendo.
The Vendos appear to be 100% mechanical. The one I have
operates with electric. I Hadn't noticed Seeburg on the machine,
but was told it was a Seeburg.
Once restored, I'll place it next to the Mills Nickel Slot machine.
Haha, no more taking my money off the Skill Roll to win my money
from the Slot machine..

Did I read that correctly? You could repair for me.

I thought you were talking about the glass on Contact. I can’t really see the glass on your pick up from the pics you posted.
Quoted from Colsond3:I thought you were talking about the glass on Contact. I can’t really see the glass on your pick up from the pics you posted.
It’s pretty bad. Here you go.

That looks perfect to me.
Quoted from bssbllr:It’s pretty bad. Here you go.[quoted image]
Yeah, that one is not fixable. I thought BGResto had done a repro glass for that game before, but I don’t see it on his site.

Nice looking machine, I thought it was a Gottlieb at first glance due to the stacked flippers. That would look great paired with a Close Encounters!
Quoted from bssbllr:It’s pretty bad. Here you go.[quoted image]
I’ve got a few ideas on where to look for a backglasses for your Gridiron. Pm sent
Not today but Wednesday. Stranger Things. I’ve been busy trying to dial it in. What a great game. The UV light kit is a must. It really pulls you into the game. So much fun. Almost forgot the shout out to Mike at PINBALLS.COM(Automated). 3rd machine I purchased from him. Super easy to deal with and very fast delivery...Highly recommended...thnx Mike.

The true super wides!
Quoted from DwightEisenhower:Just got my first pin. She's a beauty. Been spending a lot of my time at the hospital with the pandemic and this has been a very welcome distraction. Big shout out to ZMeny from Flip N Out Pinball for the quick hook up and awesome service.[quoted image]
Great game and thanks for your work at the hospital.
