    Hey guys I just got a Williams Ringer Em from a friend for free.

    Was wondering what it is worth as-is vs restored.

    As-is it is in fair condition. Light flaking of the backglass. Cabinet is solid with no water damage, but colors are dark and grungy. Metal is fair , not rusted. Power cord is cut so no idea if it works but it is complete.

    As far as restore. I can get the stencils, make the cab perfect, and paint it. Send off the wheel to be chromed. Restore the coin door. Clean and get it working. And a BG Resto replacement backglass. All of that will be around $1000 + my time.

    So some ideas of what it is worth now vs if I restore it?

    Saw a restored one sell for over $2500. But that may have been a one time only fluke.

    I think I will restore it and play it for a while.
