Indiana Jones Restoration
« on: July 16, 2016, 05:27:16 PM »
Thought I'd share some pictures of an Indy restoration I did about 12 months ago with help from HRP restoring the playfield and many, many hours spent on the cabinet. Was a bit off a rough starting point but I am very happy with the final result. Here are some before pics.

If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

Awesome job ! That cabinet looks impressive. Amazing ho much difference it makes with a restored cabinet and HRP clearcoat. Makes the game look and play better than new  ^^^

I have seen and played this machine and it looks like new!!! In fact after playing Dan's Indiana I found I really liked the game, which I normally don't like intense machines (old school for me)
Impressive work on this and also your Adams Family if I remember you saying that was a resto too and it also looks like new!

Love your work Dan, with a soldering iron and at pinball restoration! :)

Cheers: Brettski... :)

An Indy with new cab decals is possibly one of the nicest looking restos around, those colours are so nice, when they pop again it is amazing! Nice work!

I agree!! Makes all the difference... Too many out there with faded cabs!
