Hi,



Money for old rope !



I am looking to develop my playfield abd pinball restoration skills.



Playfield



Does anyone have an old Bally Williams playfield, preferably one from the

eightiess and one from the nineties. It does not need to be populated.



The poorer condition the better, ( although it would be better if it had at

least a small area of undamaged paint on it.) I will be carrying out various

experiments and some of them will be unsuccessful -so this playfield will not be

successfully restored.



It does not matter what machine it is from.





Siderails



Also for carrying out a restoration experiment - looking for at least three

stainless steel siderails, again damaged ones are fine/preferable. but they

would need to have an undamaged bit in the middle 72cm long.





I am able to collect from Blackpool show. or possibly the Irish meet ( or of

course the Scottish Open )



If you have any of the above and you are going to the shows and transport space

is an issue, then feel free to saw a bit away from the bottom and /or top of

the playfield.( oh dear - did I actually type that ?)



Similarly if you hacksaw the siderails to leave a good 72cm siderail section to

make it easier to bring then that will be fine.





Lockdown bar



Also wanted: an old stainless steel lockdown bar ( i.e. the frame for the glass

nearest your tummy) I only need the ends of the bar , I will be cutting almost

all of the middle away so if it is twisted or buckled or vandalised, then that

does not matter, also I do not need it to have the piece of metal underneath

which actually locks it down.





Cabinet/ Head Hinges



I am also looking for a couple of pairs of Bally Williams cabinet/head hinges,

as I am going to be getting various types of plating and polishing experiments

done.



Coin door,



Also looking for a bally williams coin door and frame for plating and polishing experiments.



If you have anything that fits the bill, then please get in touch.



Thanks very much,



John

I can help you out on all of the above, will be at NLP at Blackpool at the beginning of November so will bring along with me.

I am one of the organisers so just make yourself known at the pinball desk.
