**This is a work in progress, so will be slow between updates**
It has been a long time since I have posted any restorations and even longer that I have done one on my own machine.
I was undecided as to whether I wanted any more machines but after many long chats and some encouragement from Greg (RIP) I purchased my second Getaway.
I did a restoration back in 2009 which seems a lifetime ago and on-sold this machine to another member here interstate. I did miss playing it.
The first HS2 restoration attempt is here :
http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=1063.0The machine was sourced and purchased. Overall it was in good shape, no hacks, original boards, cabinet was structurally sound and I was very happy.
Apart from some unnecessary over fusing, the game was checked over and powered up where I enjoyed playing it for a little while. During this time I managed to secure a set of plastics from Nino and some other parts.
Just prior to its first power up:
It has the usual cab fade for these as well as some typical graffiti from our friends in Europe!
The playfield was in pretty good shape. A couple of the inserts had the usual lifting and some very minor insert wear. It also had some mylar / contact on it so overall has survived the wear and tear.
