53 YEAR OLD LOCKING BAR SOURCED
« on: May 19, 2009, 07:40:55 PM »
Hi all just have to thank Tony for putting me onto a guy in Texas who had a wooden lockbar for my 1955 Gottlieb Marathon.   Deal is all sorted just waiting on his payment details.   Ill post pics once it arrives $#$

The wife laughed at me when the only thing i wanted for my birthday was this lockbar " and your paying how much for that piece of wood"  But i was impressed today when i was talking to my Mum about Star trek and i said its a Bally machine and she piped up what is it like Kiss   @@* $#$  Its rubbing off slowly
