The Folk Art Black Knight, working, $995 OBO

10 Miles from Allentown PA, and the Pinfest show. No shipping.

Has wonderful original arcade folk art cabinet decorations, especially on the left side. While it could be sanded and repainted, I like it the way it is, a bit of authentic American arcade history.

Everything works as it should. This is a good candidate for the new Hard Top playfield overlays, or enjoy it as a "player's" game. It plays well.

!!! Please note that legs are not included. It currently has some non-Williams loaner legs. Also, if you plan to go with LED displays, I would give you something for the current displays. My spares were used up to get this game going.

Backglass: Upgraded. It looks pretty good. The glass is an original, with touch-ups, thanks to another Pinside BK fan.

Playfields: The lower field has planking, paint loss, an operator touch-up on one Magna-Save, and two operator added mylar half circles.
The upper playfield paint is much better, with a few worn spots near the pop bumper and the ball entryway.
Parts are fairly shiny under the playfield (dry storage), and most replacement parts were salvaged from a more lightly used Black Knight game.

Plastics: Repro pop bumper cap, otherwise a full set of original plastics (again thanks to a Pinsider for helping me out). The piece above the ball shooter lane has the typical cracks. The multiball trough plastic also has a crack, where light does not shine through.

Cabinet: Repaired on the inside with some new wood and a leg mounting plate. It has some old operator repairs which did not hold up. A bit of wood is missing on the neck (see pics). Needs three new pinballs. The shooter rod is rough but functions ok. The front door is bent but does come with coin mechs. The playfield glass has lots of scratches.

Replaced missing parts: MPU board, displays, four flipper assemblies, volume control, most bulbs, test switch assembly, trough assembly and microswitches, a few playfield switches, drop target reset plates, grounded AC plug, some playfield plastics, and added an upper ball trough light shield protector.

Boards: Fully inspected, with some parts replaced, and some old solder joints reflowed. This is an early example, with the System 6 style power supply, where the transformer is mounted in the head. Running stock +/- 100V to the displays. Have parts available for conversion to +/- 91V if desired.

This was one of my winter projects last year. Have countless hours of tinkering into it, as there was so much that had to be done. It still needs new rubber rings, legs, and new pinballs. The game has been part of my collection for over twenty years, and was heading for Pinfest, and the free play area, but plans have changed.
