I've been thinking of trying to find a project Indiana Jones as my next project. If I lived in Sydney I'd think about offering them some cash to take it away. You just never know   () . On the same note I was at Dreamworld on the Gold Coast the other day an noticed they have an ACDC in there games room which looked to be in new condition except for the giant ticket machine bolted to the side.

I went there not so long ago as well, I called them today as was curious if they would sell them - big fat NO, but they have a Elvis that they will sell soon - not sure where that was set up.

I tried to explain to him if he cleans and maintains them you will get a lot more plays and interest from people as they were in very poor condition. He said he will take that on board but time is short but thanks anyway.

I don't know why they put them there - I told them that there is discussion of sited pins on the pinball forums and he could earn money on the pins if they were clean and working - he didn't seem to care - must be there more for nostalgia??????

Maybe they are there just to get people through the door to play other games that are less maintenance intensive???  !@#

Good try to score one of them swinks. People were still playiing them but very few while i was there. i dibnt notice the other machine but if its not being played it might really be a dead one.

Yes I saw them about two weeks ago in the coney island building it was sad to see them that way.
