Bally Rolling Stones

[SirBadger]

I picked up Dave Rolfe's project Rolling Stones.

I've been out of the pinball scene for a while and now with a 3 year old daughter it's time for training to begin.
This table will never be a stunner and I'm looking to repair as economically as possible.



Getting it home, I recognised the sticker. This table had been bought from Bob Thomson auction back in July 2004 for £160 on the first day. I missed the first day but went to the second. Anybody not familiar with be shocked by it Pinball News link






It's always the lamp driver left

"That things looks minging!" - Misses quote, so I thought I would show what a quick clean on a spot would look like.



Entire bottle of Millwax exploded when I squirted it. I think it might have a 15 year shelf life. Bloody stuff got everywhere.

I picked up a DR machine and it was missing 2 boards. I have the Light board but will be swapping it out so I can LED mine.
Looks like a patten of missing cards across these machines.

Next time I will be savvy enough to ask questions!
