Hi Guys,

Well, my Funhouse restoration is nearing its completion. I spent the last few days soldering and neatening up as much of the loom as possible, as well as polishing up the remaining metal parts.

In between playfield work, i refinished the coin door MartyJ generously donated to my cause. I really wanted this restore to reflect the game pictured on the original flyer, so it was important that i had the door to match as well...

Rebuilt...


Some minor details that add to the whole package...


Once the playfield was back in the cabinet, i was able to get to work...

Ready to go...


Here is the underside of the playfield. I split the three looms up and colour coded the cable ties, so in future i know exactly what im looking at...


With everything wired up, and all tests completed (and passed thank goodness!!) i grabbed the camera to take a few glamour shots.

I still have to install the steps ramp, but i need to rivet the entrance flap first up. If any of the Geelong guys have a riveting tool, could you please let me know if you could help me out  ^^^

Anyway, here are a few glamour shots of the game from various myspace influenced angles  &&

From the right...


Middle...I need to correct that pointing hand plastic too...


Left...


Above...


And last but not least...

Rudy back home asleep...


I still have a few more updates, but just thought i'd post my progress thus far.

Hope everyone is having a pinball filled weekend, like me!

Thanks for reading,
