The spinner has been painted a color close to the original, then clearcoated 3 times. I apply the decal and it looks NEW !








It might seem a small detail, but a new spinner can really complete the game. I'm not entirely happy with the result, as I applied the decal too high and the clear AND paint have already started to chip - which really is really annoying. Lucky I bought spares !


I've also installed the factory lane guides from RTBB. The game had NOS Bally white stamped lane guides which is a bonus as I could use them on another game.

Here are some pictures of the completed playfield. New plastics set, Bumper bodies, caps, targets and post caps. No expense spared. The Clearcoat has held up VERY well. The pictures don't do the game justice. I will take some final pictures over the weekend (during the day). But here's the playfield with the flash on the camera..








The game plays 100% and is going through final testing.
