I had a link to pinnies for sale, but deleted it about a week ago.
I'll test the memory banks again.

The ones i was chasing are
The Black Hole - Had 2 levels
The Addams Family - Had 3 levels

I've got a 1994 model Stargate by Gottlieb, great fun although we don't play it much now and have been considering selling it. I also had wide playfield Laserball by Williams which I restored about 4 years ago and sold 2 years ago for $3000

Addams Family is not a cheap pinny and one the most popular is Twilight Zone, both sell for around the $6000 mark.

Old table machines like Space Invaders (yep, had one) are difficult to restore as parts can be hard to get, maintaining them can also be costly... you are better off buying a new machine with old school game play's...

My pinny....

Is there anything cool you don't have or have had and restored.......you never cease to amaze me...if you do intend to move south, you will need a mansion to put all your interesting things.....:D

Jennie, I'll have a go at anything....

I restored this 1942 jeep tyre pump about 2 months ago, had the parts zinc plated, made new leather washers for the internals and the pump is painted with original Nos 1944 dated olive drab paint. 66yr old synthetic enamel paint and it is still good..:eek:

I have a Pacman and Scramble both upright arcade games. Had them since the late 80's. Both still operational, I tied to sell them on ebay and to a dealer a few years ago but worth SFA. In the US they are pulling big bucks - 'supply and demand'. Now have vowed to keep them and use them when I can, hopefully when I get a huge workshop can set them up next to the beer fridge..a bit like the HQ, however less cost to maintain and use!!!

check out MAME machines they are a very cool DIY way of having an old school arcade machine at a small cost. and the best thing you can download 1000's of games that are already coded to go straight onto a machine. It is another project I have been looking at for a while
