I remember on that Friday night I was looking for some help with one of my pins that I was working on. I had only been back in the hobby for less then a year....
I am in the midst (okay, midst is probably the wrong term - I started this in July), of refinishing my 75 Gottlieb El Dorado. The tops of some of the screws...
Just got the 25" legs for my A-Go-Go as well as a missing flipper coil and replacement for the broken pop bumper ring. I'm on my way again! While reinstalling...
Craig, I guess it's really up to you on how you'd like it to play. If you're not sure, Jam down to Radio Shack and buy a bag of clip leads. You can wire it...
Mark is the MAN! those inserts you dropped off at the Patio store were PERFECT. i mean PERFECT. they fit like a glove and looked great. thanks! ... labels....
Hi Mike, Put them all in the tumbler! They will come out looking like new. I just finished a Gottlieb in which the plastics are held down with push nuts. I...
Hi Craig, John and I have talked about this before. Basically, we would have rewired the flippers so it would be more fun to play. It can always be switched...
I think the original design is a decent one. but if i was going to modify it, i would make it plug selectible. that way, on the fly, at anytime, i could change...
I have my Slick Chick pinball all cleaned up and back together. It seems to be working as it should now thanks to Clay and the Detroit EM group. I'm only...
Hi Clay, This does not fit the "from an old playfield" part of your discription, however I asked Don my co-author as he was looking for some too. His response...
Ok... Here's an update. The machine has the original coils still in it. The switches and the linkage have been replaced, the plungers are clean and move...
i bought that misc.bag of inserts and it's nearly useless for EMs. all new style facetted inserts, almost no white and smooth ones. ... discription, ... His...
What do you need, I've got some parts playfields downstairs. Gary ... From: cfhatprovidedotnet To: empinbalmachines@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, December...
I'm at the very beginning of fixing my Williams Spooks gun game. Right now the game will turn on and reset the reels properly to zero and the bullseye flash...
I think I have a used one that I have dragged to the last couple of West Coast shows. I have looked at IPD and sent the pic to Don in hopes of jogging his ...
Someone has to have a color picture of this game right? pretty please??? I know it's rare, but there's at least a couple out there somewhere. doesn't anyone...
So i got this funky 1958 Pixie bowler, and the first course of action is to get it working (before i repaint it). And the very first chore is to fix the pin...
Hi Al, It sounds like you are missing some parts. I don't know anything about the game itself, but the Williams 1974-75 Parts catalog lists the parts for it...
I know a local guy that "I THINK" owns one of these games, Clay.....I'll see if I can find out and maybe get you a color picture.... Larry cfhatprovidedotnet...
I'm working on a 1958 Gottlieb Rocket Ship and I noticed that while it does have a "Game Over" message on the backglass there is no light socket (though there...
I'm not NEAR as fast as Clay on this stuff, but I'm starting to have a demand for my services of late, so I thought I'd post the experiences here. If this is...
posted to RGP too... Not a cost savings measure at all. It was a progression. You can read about it at http://marvin3m.com/gtb Gottlieb was the last maker to...
Greywolf, Keep posting these fixes. I believe most all of us will enjoy reading these and get something from them. Anyone that can Disassemble, clean, lube,...
Clay, Even my 1957 Arrowhead allows the flippers to stay energized after the last ball is drained. There is no "game over" relay in these late 50's Williams...
I would think arrowhead would have a game over relay. many Wms games prior to that do. that seems very odd. ... after the last ball is drained. There is no...
