Lady Luck Restoration .. Progress update

[goodolddays]

Thanks Daniel .
Yeah , pretty happy with it, especially being able to play her after all this time and effort that went into this project. Still got a couple of minor faults to track down.
There were a number of firsts for me with this one.
1st time I've done any PF touchups, 1st time I've tried repainting a cab, 1st order from PBR, 1st time I have spent so much money on parts for one game and the most complicated EM I have had to fault find so far.
I was lucky in being able to find a manual and schematic from an Ebay seller in the US , who was actually happy to sell O/S.

I'm now thinking about trying to touch up the backglass (which would be another 1st for me)   

Cheers
Dave

Well, about 15 faults later (I've lost count  ) I just played 5 games in a row without something going wrong so I must be getting there  .

Last fault to nut out is why its not awarding a credit when you beat the dealer (all adjustments are set correctly) .
Think I will have to rewire it a bit , the large bell in the cabinet is so LOUD

Good on you Dave - this has been a great thread to follow with cab painting, playfield touch ups and EM electrical woes and fault finding.

You must be very happy and satisfied to be finished - 5 games in a row I'd define as finished!   Thanks for taking time time and effort to document it for us.

Thanks for the feedback Dave, glad you have enjoyed the thread.
Yes, I have great sense of satisfaction to have this game working and looking so good.
As I've probably said earlier, this project was a major challenge for me , and I haven't had an EM with so many faults before either.
It was a huge exercise in patience and persistance , given I picked this game up in April '09 and have wanted to play it since then.

I'm looking forward to starting on my next project (the '65 Gottlieb Thor bred) 

Cheers
Dave

Fixed the prob of not awarding credits .. a dirty and out of adjustment switch on the score motor. 
A little bit more fine tuning and this game will be running sweet 

Have to say this is a fantastic game to play, so much happening .. I LOVE IT . It was worth every minute and every cent I've put into it. 

Will never sell it ! .. end of rave
