Acquired a Whirlwind today that looks like it went through a real whirlwind! It was left under a tarp outside for several years, then stored in a small garage.

I don't know what was more amazing; seeing the boards are mostly intact with no corrosion damage, or that I was able to avoid a bidding war and get a great price!

Quoted from Pinkitten:

Oof. Outside under a tarp for several years? That gives me the heebie jeebies. Who would do that to such a fantastic machine? Glad you rescued it. I hope you can restore that poor game!

The person I bought it from was a nice guy, and he apparently got it from a boy's prep school or something back in the late 90's/early 2000's and had it since then. I've made a restoration topic on the machine and will be inspecting it more closely to really assess all the damage and problems. This may be a machine that needs not only a new cabinet decal, but possibly a CPR playfield or NOS playfield.

Here's the thread if you're interested in following it. I am a newb at restoration/repair so it will be a learning curve and likely a long process! https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/a-whirlwind-that-looks-like-it-went-through-a-whirlwind#post-5768502

I didn't bring it home, Fast Eddy came through again and brought The Machine! Huge thanks to Eddy!

The pin I had the most memories of has finally arrived at my home!

Could it be...a survivor Sorcerer without a shredded/badly worn playfield?! It seems as though someone had mylared parts of the playfield a long time ago to protect it, and it shows!
