Just an example of how I like to leave things original as much as possible. I am doing my Williams Flash restore http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=11238.msg147155#msg147155 and most things are intact and authentic from 1979. Globes, rubbers and leg levelers were the only new components and everything else was cleaned.
An example where I could have put new decals are the drop targets and spinner. I cleaned and left the originals. The spinner was 15% worn to the metal at the base where I touched up. The targets are slightly worn. I put contact on all targets and the spinner to preserve what is there.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
