Quoted from MiamiRedSkin:Did you grab this from someone in Chicago? I went out and checked this machine out when it was for sale by the original owner. We shook on a deal as I didn't have help to carry it out of the basement, but I guess the seller found someone else right after me to take it. I remember seeing those homemade metal ramp flaps
No I picked this up in St Louis
This is what happens when you don't take your medication for the day. This was only a hour from my house and has been in the mans home for the last 25 years with very little play time on it. He said the flippers didn't work but when I got it in my cellar and moved some of the connectors she came to life and play like a charm I hope the game lives up to all its hype.
This hasn’t been played for the last 10 years. No keys so no maintenance but its cleaning up really good. This has been the closest pick up so far 30 miles and gave $50 to one of his church missions groups.

Eight ball was all chromed out and cabinet was repainted and playfield was very nice. He never thought about selling it but we made the bundle deal and both were happy. The wife said you better get both as she is very wise. Good thing I brought extra cash along as you never know what else one may buy along the way.
Had a empty stall for a week and filled it today with Hot Tip. It came with a lock bar with holes in it which can’t be right.

Yes these are all restored. I usually buy them and do my own restoration on them but this Gold strike was complete with a new playfield, backglass and many new parts. I have missed out on 2 Eldorado's but this was worth waiting for!
