F-14 Tomcat
A fantastic looking and playing F-14. I have poured a lot of time and money into this machine. I've thoroughly enjoyed it, but it's time for it to find a new home.

One of my first pinball machines about 10 years ago was an F-14. I loved it. It was pretty beat up, had a mylared bubbling playfield, the wrong motor for the beacons, etc... I sold it, to make room for the next machine. But I missed it. F-14 is brutal and fast and a lot of fun.
When they came out with the high quality reproduction playfields made in Germany I ordered it. While I waited for it to arrive I found an F-14 with a worn out playfield and a nice cabinet, I bought a new set of plastics from CPR playfields, Pinscore LEDs, a set of Led's from pinballbulbs.com, new beacons, and many many new parts I can't remember. It was a labor of love (mostly) to get it right.
Every part was cleaned, polished, replaced if needed etc... new flipper mechs, bats, rubbers, etc... I don't want to try to count the hours, but its more than I'd like to say.
The machine came out beautiful and plays incredibly well. I also installed the mirrored backglass sold by planetary pinball.
The cabinet is a nice one especially for an F-14, but not a showpiece. It presents well and has a few touch ups.
My strong preference is that the buyer sees it and plays it in person. I'd rather not ship but may consider it. I would also consider trades +/- cash for something interesting.

added: made these little video clips showing the machine.
