where do you line up to buy one of your machines !!!
Cam i think if Nino had a lineup to get hold of one of his pins it would probably reach your front door so your in the right spot %.%

Is that a CV sitting bolt upright against Nino's wall??  NICE  *%*

Thats when you know you have a lot of pins, when a CV is sitting waiting for the Nino restore  #*#

When Pins die they dream of being reincarnated in Nino's place  :lol

That's my prized CV. That is "somewhere" in the queue - But I have to do two EMs before starting the CV. Resto threads after Galaxy is done.

CV will be getting the full treatment.

Sinbad arrives in the Hunter Valley!   $#$   $#$   @@*   #*#   :D

After a great effort from Tony and Gavin (Thanks heaps!)

Sinbad has arrived back at the new home. Now that I have seen (in person) all Strangeways's skilled handywork!
It is nothing short of absolutely amazing!

Looks, sounds and plays wonferfully. I have to stop playing now because the kids need to go to bed. Just arrived back in Bolwarra an hour ago ex Sydney. (Picked it up from Hills Parcel Direct at Smithfield yesterday) The guys there were very professional and helpful. The machine was well packed, protected and transported.

I havent had a chance to clean it up and level it etc but it looks brilliant. Will do this over the weekend.

Many thanks to all and I must say we have a great forum when people really go the extra mile to help each other and take this personally. As such, I look forward to returning the favour when the opportunity arises.

Cheers!

J.D.

I'm glad it has found it's new home. I hope you enjoy the machine as much as I did restoring it.

Thanks for the kind words  ^^^

Not yet. I am restoring / tidying up my Jungle Queen at the moment.
Will take a photo when complete and together Tony.

My plan is to sell Jungle Queen and buy a Gottlieb surfer next.

It does look great in the gamesroom. I called in last sunday & had a game or 3 on the Sinbad, it is one nice machine. It's right up there with the resto'd Gorgar & Playboy that it sits next to. Thats a great collection you have JD.
I look forward to some more games on the Jungle Queen when its back together, it's coming along nice as well.
cheers Steve.
