This restoration is well and truly on the home straight. The sling plastics were originally missing from the game, and after chasing these for months, I found the Left hand sling on EBay USA. I plan on scanning the sling and reversing the image for the RHS. The lift trim I ordered 6 months ago, but the wrong size was sent, so I had to wait for a new batch of 3/16 Lift channels to be produced and sent to me.

In the meantime, I finished off the playfield ;







The game had a few issues, but most were minor. A lot of the repairs were common sense, and with the help of schematics and a keen eye..

There's a dry joint in this switch stack..





.. and a critical issue on stack #1, which keeps the score motor running through cycles ;





A close up ;





Took a while, but they were very simply faults if you understand schematics.
