Hi Retropin, you are a life saver.
I live in Brissy too. The coin slide takes threepences, so has been in use here in Oz for sure.
Have already been in contact with Terry, along with the others mentioned. Terry hasn't given his opinion yet, I think he is still researching and thinking.
I agree, the machine has been taken from the USA and plonked for use in a shop here in Oz. Only the coin slide and anti-tilt cup have been changed out of necessity I suppose. Obviously the paintwork is not original.
It is fascinating to watch how well balanced and laid out the machine is, how smoothly the balls flow through the arches and down the playfield to just the right spot to hopefully release the captured balls. Extremely Art Deco in look.
I tried contact Russ before realising his sad passing. Hope you can find this ranch guy, that would be fantastic.
We'll have to look at each others pingames one day then.
Cheers
Chris
