Williams Indiana Jones WPC pinball restoration

[Alpha1]

Update!

The cabinet is being put back together now, with most of the internals being put back in and rewired.

Brand new polished side rails fitted

It's looking pretty sweet!!

What's everyone think of a chrome coin door?

I think i'm gonna go for one.

 

[guddler]

Almost a shame to see all those parts going back in and obscuring all that lovely woodwork!!

Not sure about the chrome coin doors but then I'm not a fan of chrome generally.

 

[Big Phil]

Are you using the original wiring or new?

 

[Guests]

Great stuff this, Woodtech is smokin' this job.

I'd chrome the coin door large personally.

Tell me...is this a personal favourite or is it a sought after pin in general? My knowledge on this stuff is minimal but i know a good job when i see one!

Hey dude, the wiring harness has been removed and washed and re-spaded where necessary

Yeah deffo gonna go for the chrome coin door! Think i'll restore the 3 slot one as that's what's on the serial sticker rather than buy a 2 slot one.

I really like this pin, I think it's pretty sought after, looking forward to finishing it!!

If the rails, lock down bar and legs are gonna be chrome, you may as well get the chrome coin door

ok so whilst I wait for payday and the funds to buy a few more bits, here's a pic of the back of the backbox. It's been re-screened with the Williams/Bally warning tat.

Looks minty I must say.

If all goes according to plan i'll have it tomorrow in my hands and i'll take some full shots and get it up on some temporary legs ready to start the rest of the rebuild work.

I must say that does look good

if this was a car resto it would be classed as a OEM+ restoration, better than when it left the factory

very nice work, hats off to the wood guy

math

 

[RaveN]

Can I buy it when you're finished?

 

[Alpha1]

Can I buy it when you're finished?

I'll probably play it to death and it will look like it looks before I started

I'll pm you then.

 

[Deathrow]

Simply fantastic!
