Putting the cabinet back together continues.  I've installed new flipper switches and flipper buttons and housings.  I've also installed new ball shooter springs and polished the ball shooter which has come up 110% better than what it was originally.














I have decided not to touch the cabinet artwork and I'll leave it as it is to retain its history.  I'm told its in quite good condition considering its 32 year old age.  If I did try to touch this up, I think it would really stick out and look worse, so I think its better leaving it in its original condition which I am happy with anyway




The siderails were removed and cleaned as best as I could considering their age.  I installed new siderail nails from Marcos.  They were a little too long for this cabinet so I had to trim them slightly.  The new nails really make a difference from the older rusty ones












I hand cleaned the yellow plastic and aluminium earth contacts with nifty and ranex as they were filthy and the aluminium was very rusty.









The stainless steel brackets around the coin door were polished, as was the ball shooter.





I installed new earth braiding from Pinrestore in the US.  A bargain at USD$0.73c a foot from memory.  I installed new leg bolts also - look much more shiny than the old rusty ones
