Medusa
Bally, 1981Hello just picked up a second Medusa pinball only problem is it is a full complete cabinet without a backbox.
What I would love would be a original backbox complete with nice BG
But being realisticly a backbox with a light door , and wire loom and BG would do me fine.
but i anyone has one laying around I would be interested in purchasing it.
lol well i have a guy wanting me to build him one and in a restoration job on a bride of pinbot coming in for the next week or so the guy offered me a headless Black knight and medusa twards the restoration cost so since i have another black knight coming in for restoration i can use the parts or at least the medusa for parts for my machine. but i rather find another medusa head and make another medusa vs parting out the complete bottom cabinet esp since i have a customer wanting one currently and parting out a good medusa bottom would take one more out of the population.
As of wednsday i just got a second complete fathom to restore as well from Minnesota.
I dont care about parting the BK bottom and PF since they made 15k but medusa is a bit more rare and hate to let one goto parts vs a saved machine from that fate.
How strange, I wonder what the story is behind all these missing pinball heads.
If you end up parting out the Medusa lower, I could use one of the backbox hinges. Mine is missing half of one of them, another mystery as to why in the world that was taken off LOL.
Yeah the guy that bought my Space Invaders has informed me i will be restoring all his classic machines thats where the majority of this business is coming from atm.
plus Im getting sent another 8-9 bare Playfields to restore and clear as well.
As far as parting the cabinet well im trying to avoid that i part it and thats one less medusa in existence ide like to avoid that at all cost, which is why Im looking for a backbox atm.
Ok it dont look good as far as finding a Medusa backbox lol.
Ok suppose i will have to modify my request to looking for a bally 80-84 single glass backbox with 7 digit display wire loom and a Medusa backglass lol I have another complete machine i can make a new light panel if needed.
