Restorations

Check List When Buying A Pinball

1987 Williams F14 Tomcat Item

Started a restoration on an F14. 

I just got this game 3/18/2012. It is very nice. The cabinet is the best CWS cabinet I have had.

Upon initial inspection:
New Display
Replaced right back leg bracket
attached goalie to switch
Coil is taped to bracket.
Ball does not rotate (needs a new motor).

Items I will buy:
LEDs
New Motor
Display (already installed)
Front lock
New motor
New Posts, plastics, caps
New rubbers
 

Here is a great Corvette game in great condition. This is one of my favorite games. Great theme. Beautiful playfield and artwork. Great game play. This game is wonderful for the entire family or a Corvette enthusiast.

At the moment, the game is working 100% but not totally restored. The price above reflects the "finished" product. However, it is ready to go now if someone wants a game at a lower cost. Once certain changes are made, the price cannot go down. I plan to put LEDs in the game, new rubbers, posts, bumper caps, replace metal that looks bad, sling plastics.
 

Unrestored, clean Buckley (Mills) Conversion Nickel Slot. It works nicely. It looks good. It has the lock and key on the back door and original coin box.

May 2006 - Really fun and interesting restoration. 

The end result was beautiful. I realized that I am not a painter when working on this game. The before and after pictures are really nice.

Reasons You Should Let Us Deliver Your Pinball (or Another Machine)

  1. We will NOT provide a warranty for the machine since we cannot be assured that a problem did not happen when you transported the machine.
  2. We take responsibility for any damage that may occur during the delivery process.
  3. We professionally set up the machine, connect all the connectors, attach the legs, head, etc. and ensure that the pinball works properly. If anything is out of adjustment due to moving the machine, we can fix it in a few minutes as compared to having to come to your house later and charging you a trip fee and repair charge.
  4. If anything major is out of adjustment, we can order parts and repair. This hardly ever happens but it could and you and the machine are protected.

Delivery Options

We are currently set up for local delivery only within the Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, and North-Eastern West Virginia area. If you are interested in shipping the pinball machine, we will contact a shipper. You will pay all crating and postage costs.

If you would like us to deliver and set up within 50 miles of Purcellville, the charge is $175; within 100 miles $250. The delivery charge includes delivery to a first floor or basement level if walk-out.

We will not sell you a game/deliver the game if the only entrance to your basement is an inside the house staircase. They are too narrow. Plus we have to ensure we don't mess up carpet or wood. It just isn't worth it.

You may also come and pick up the machine from our location.
