Re: 1980 Bally Space Invaders Cleanup

Here are some pics of the underside of the playfield.  I have not even had a good look at this area as yet.  That'll do it for pics from the machine as received before the cleanup started.  Watch this space!





The playfield was / is filthy and covered in dust (not a bad thing from what I'm told).  I have given it a 10 minute once over with nifty and its already come up looking great.  The playfield will be the last piece of the puzzle.

I was recently in the US and I ordered a tonne of new parts from both Marco's and PBR and I brought these back home with me.  I also purchased new earth braiding from Pinrestore.  The machine did not come with a lockdown bar.  I sourced a 2nd hand one from PBR in very good condition for $40

There are quite a few more items not listed (mostly metals) but here's a brief idea of some of the more important new parts that I ordered

Bally widebody lockdown bar
New Beer Seal  
2 x Complete Rubber Ring Kits
4 x '50' Silver slant top deco colour Black Pop Bumper Caps        
8 x Leg Bolts
Upper Blue Flipper set
5 x Round Face Stand Up Switch Assembly
Some new lamp sockets
New Cable Clamp            
New Pop Bumper assemblies
All new coils
2 x Flipper Rebuild Kits (with the advanced EOS switch - as recommended by Nino)
Hex posts

Coin door carriage bolt set

New cabinet flipper switches
Shooter springs
Red Playfield plastic fin posts and spools all new
Bally Coin Door sticker
New flipper buttons and housings
