Check out the scary wiring around the power board on this.
Worth saving or parts ?

Yep scarey to me. Noticed his others. Most missing displays, are they hard to get or expensive seeing he has lots of machines missing these as projects. Is that the big catch?

Lol- driver board has had a melt down at the solenoid transistors... shes a rough old beast but perfectly salvageable.
$150 project machine for local pick up

Are you trying to beat it down so you can pick it up for $150 Gav? 
Some pidgeon will pay $1000 for this machine just watch.

Sure make mine look good 
What is with the overlapping text in his ads .. it hurts my eyes

[Mr Pinbologist]

Yeah like Gav said, its rough but its all salvageable.
The BG looks to have some crazing/lifting in it too but it looks as though all of the art is there at least.

+1, makes it bloody hard to read

Had a look at this game today
Playfield looks OK, but I did not lift it up
Backglass was transparent
Backbox was suffering from severe water damage
Backbox insert was puffed up from water damage
Circuit boards were al there, they looked like they had been cleaned up. As had the displays
Cabinet was probably beyond restoring, inside was greener than the Hulk

I did not even make an offer

Sounds like a couple of hundred would be tops for the parts that could be salvaged for someone desperate for a FP.

Container filler.

Saw this and figured it was a pick up by the seller who was hoping to flick it quickly and not have to take it off his truck!!!

Nice machine!      

[Pop Bumper Pete]

Nah, I think he bought it as a project and got ripped off
All the boards and displays are there but I would bet they are all faulty
Withe the amount of rotting wood, I would say that under the playfield is full of rust
Cannot believe that someone has put a bid on it

Nothing wrong with projects. They offer good opportunites for restorers and enthusiasts who want to learn. Just keep within the budget and have a crack !
