    Quoted from skywelker:

    I posted these before but figured they really belong in this thread. I bought this as a project and couldn't get into it until I got home and drilled the locks....

    That is different! Attraction mode must be very different than an original game.

    Quoted from sohchx:

    Not exactly a hack perse', but an interesting credit switch

    The Door Bell switch is an often seen hack.

    Hopefully it rings the chimes too. Or the best answer, used to summon the wife to bring you a fresh drink.

    The Spinner must of caused some problems as well, as it looks like it was removed.

    Quoted from pinballtech:

    old cannister vacuum cleaner

    Think that is a Hoover Constellation.

    Congratulations 'You won the Post of the Week', hands down!

    So it must be wired for sound, with that speaker installed, or is there a radio in there somewhere?

    Quoted from DCRand:

    Reinforced the sides of the back box with metal angle brackets, with you guessed it, carriage bolts through the cab.

    Must of suffered from a whole bunch of shaking and nudging.

    Quoted from Irishbastard:

    First you have to trudge throw a foot deep of trash (coffee cups, discarded wiring, and straight up trash) to walk through

    Tripping hazards, a fires fuel source, seems almost scary.
