Update!



Well I had some time to start putting her on her legs. I got the legs out and I must say i'm really impressed. They are minty.

So assembly starts! I have the pincab protectors as well as the felt ones.

That's it for now. I did fit the chrome door to see how it looks. Unfortunately the light wasn't that good anymore so the pic isn't as good as it should be. I'll take a better one tomorrow.

Fantastic!

Do you have any pics of the playfield, post clearcoat yet ?.

How long do they say you should leave it before bolting the hardware back on ?.

I don't know what they use on playfields, but I am interested because I know from doing cellulose and acrylic lacquer on guitar bodies that it can be months before I dare screw the hardware down onto it.

This thread just gets better and better. It's like Xmas morning every time I open it. Great work. Do you have any plans to give us an idea of the amount of money and time that you have spent with this rebuild?

 

[Alpha1]

I'll put a parts and price list up at the end

 

[Toothfairy]

Thanks Alpha. You are doing such a great job, I almost feel that we should be contributing towards your rebuild
