$1200 +

The playfield is in excellent shape, as are the plastics and backglass. The body could be repainted and 31 inch legs installed and you would have and excellent machine. It looks like the legs are 27 inch - which won't affect the price.

I think it is a good price for the buyer and seller. All this pinball needs (cosmetically) is a repaint.

I hope someone on the forum bought this game and starts a resto thread !

Congrats Matt - Great score. 31 inch legs are difficult to track down unless you purchase from PBR.

Spirit of 76 onwards used 27 inch legs. Volley was produced after Spirit of 76 and it has the new style door that appears on system 1 etc. So I was incorrect - you need 27 inch chrome legs. I jumped to the conclusion that you needed 31 inch legs based on the fact my Volley has 31 inch legs.

 &^&

So grab a set of 27 inch chrome legs - they will be MUCH easier to track down.

Great pick up Matt,a very good player and machine was in nice condition.A little bit of work to do, but i think it was a good pick up price wise.I could not sell mine for that price,it is still at the moment a buyers market,so you have got yourself a bargain in my opinion. @@*.Also i checked the legs on mine and i also have the wrong size,mine are 28 1/2".My Card Whiz has 27" so if you find a supplier in aussie who has them let me know please.
