Fully Restored Pro Football is FOR SALE. Asking price is $2500
Restoration thread can be found here - http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=98.0 (http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=98.0)
A brief rundown
The aim was to bring this game "back from the dead" and really push my restoration skills. Time or expense didn't matter.
Any reproduction part I could buy was bought - Coin Door and hardware included
Every single part was cleaned, polished, repaired or replaced
All mechanisms were rebuilt
Cabinet was replaced and repainted using the highest quality paints and stencils from Gavin (Retropin)
Playfield was touched up and only the touched up areas were clearcoated.
Legs are original and in excellent condition
Game works on 20 cent coins, or I can set to Free Play
I've probably missed some points that are detailed in the Restoration thread. This game is easily the best I've done in years, and I'd say I've spent 150+ hours on this machine. I am VERY fussy with my restorations, and this game works absolutely perfectly. Members who are interested are welcome to play it. I can deliver and setup in Melbourne metro for free. I can mummify and organize interstate transport. I'd rather offer it here than eBay. I respectfully think it is worth more than what I'm asking, but I think it is a great opportunity for someone to own a game in this condition.

Hi Mark - Glad you found the site. Thanks for the kind words, and I'm really happy the game will be appreciated by one of the "fussiest" collectors I've ever spoken to ^^^
I look forward to restoring another game for you in the future.

Welcome Mark!
I played a PF when I was collecting my King Pin - I was very tempted by it, really enjoyed the game play. It would be amazing to play one at the level Nino took this one.

Welcome Mark.. it is a stunning looking game.

Thanks Nino for thoroughly describing the machine prior to purchasing on ebay. I felt totally confident in the purchase of Pro Football as I spoke to you several times before I purchased it and I saw several pictures of it. I was absolutely impressed as it came up with only one courier to Brisbane. It was so well wrapped and protected it took me over an hour to unwrap. I would definatley purchase another pinball machine off you. Pro Football restored as new.
Thanks, Nino
