That is one glowing endorsement and I am now thinking a fully restored hotrodded classic might be a better way to go and a better use of coin than another NIB.
You are spot on - when you see one of these games finished it really is inspiring. If you have a classic or a modern classic B/W game that you love, seeing it restored to this level is something to behold. Tim will be doing my AFM cab one of these days. As it already has a new playfield and basically all new other parts, Tim's work to the exterior will create a masterpiece I am certain based on the games I have seen in the flesh.
The more I think about it the more I realise this prob is the way to go for me....might have to sell IM to make it happen but I can't help thinking I would be much happier with a fully restored classic game that looks even better than a nib stern.
Hmmm which game though.....
Maybe shouldn't have sold my really nice aus delivered wh20, that would have scrubbed up beautifully.
