HOLY GRAIL PINBALL TO ADD TO MY COLLECTION
« on: June 28, 2009, 09:08:35 PM »
Well id always thought that strikes and spares would be a pin id never get to own. Being the first pin i ever played i always loved it but thanks to Mark i now have one in storage this one will be getting the treatment as soon as Marathon has had its respray.  Ive already started work on the Cpu (Which is the only spare bally board i owned and the only one missing)
  So thanks again Mark

Congratulations mate!!  One of my favourites too :)  In fact I remember me & my mate using a big speaker magnet over the metal spinner to rack up points at the local squash courts.  I hope the PF glass area above the spinner on your's doesn't have scratches over it  &&

good to see Daniel, enjoy, Strikes and Spares was a favorite of mine when it was released.  I used to play it at the Box Hill Ten Pin Bowling Centre.  Great game

yea yea   suck up now   after you bent me over

hmmmm



SS was sitting on the rack ..  looked the part too
I thought it had no boards or displays .....   so Daniel makes me offer
I am sure it had no boards or displays too .....

so I get it down  with the forklift ...  find a set of legs on it  hmmm  and then  see displays  hmmmm   then open the door and it even has boards ....

so today I check out my RS to find it on the floor missing displays and boards .....

I am guessing you can see what happened    hey ....


nah only kidding  glad you're happy    but  i really didnt know it had boards or displays  
and thanks for the JW too

send me some pictures when done too

thanks for the help too
