Peter got a decent Dr. Pepper Bottle pop machine for $200. I bought 5
pin bodies & 1 head, for $260 which got me what ever crap playfields
were also there. I left the Six Million Dollar Man playfield outside,
since I thoght it was a good oddity! Cabinets I bought were Bally
Eight Ball (was moldy so off into the pile), Mr. & Mrs. Pacman (no
glass in head & gutted except for Squalk & Talk, aux. lamp driver, 3
displays. Left it in trailer legs on). Flash Gordon, Elecktra, & Xenon
came home. Only Xenon cab & head will be kept. All the picture glass
was trash & only saw Xenon there on a shelf. Forgot to show bare
Strikes & Spares playfield in fair condition. The guy was going to
throw out the 2 box's of boards, which have decent batteries.

Cost of the trip for each of us $100, $85 gas, $5 toll, & $10 food. 3
hours each way & 3 hours sorting & moving junk! Peter's photo's first
4 show slots, he is pictured in the trailer shots, & I'm outside with
my trailer by the lake.

Overall it was a decent trip, & a worth while gamble. I can always use
parts to keep other pins going. You can see the new pictures of what I got above.
