Wow that looks absolutely amazing mate!
I am not into Star Trek but restored one for a mate many years ago. Such a great game, they jammed so many cool things into this machine.
Love the attention to detail you have gone into on this one, awesome  *%*

Pic heavy final update - Bling photos. I literally had 30 minutes of cleared weather. The game is since long gone to it's new home in Queensland.
Again, thanks to @el_timbo86 for the amazing playfield resto and clear, and Stu for the cabinet.
All Parts were (cough) sourced via RTBB (cough).










































Thanks for everyone's comments etc. I thoroughly enjoyed this restoration, and the new owner is enjoying a perfectly working machine. I miss it already !

1993, a great year for Pinball resurgence and bill of materials.

The translite looks a bit dark in its overall colour grading, is it a Wayne repro?

Not a repro. Original. If the translite was not good I would have used the CPR backglass.

Bloody awesome looking restoration!! Tim's also doing a playfield for mine (thanks Nino!! :) ) at the moment, can't wait to see it. Was not thinking about a new cab, but I have fallen for this game in a big way, and seeing how amazing this one looks I think I might have to reconsider!

That's one of the key reasons I like to post resto threads - so it inspires others to restore games and enjoy them to their full potential. I used to hate this title, but over the years, I've grown to appreciate how deep the rules are, how much FUN the game is, and how brutal it can be. It sits in well with your collection.
