“Baywatch will be ri” (it’s a Baywatch joke, you wouldn’t understand
)
Ok folks so picked up this Baywatch end of May.
It was a sorry state. Never had any love. But it did have a colour display so that’s a bonus. Otherwise, tatty cab, filthy, bits broken etc…
I couldn’t bare to flip a game on it due to the filth. Every game was another bit of sand paper killing it in my eyes. Plus the skill shot kicker was broken so couldn’t play it properly anyway on skill shot or modes.
Most bulbs were silvered, had some acid
Damage on the battery holder thankfully hadn’t progressed further.
Here’s some before pics

I lost the will with it after I stripped it down and left it in a box of bits for a few months but then I broke my foot and had a few weeks to kill so I cracked on.
The large wire form took me four hours to polish. It was so tarnished.
All told I probably had ten hours in polishing the wire forms.
Then all the top side parts and then all the underside mechs. I reckon not far off 150 hrs. Sitting at my table plodding along.

I removed the mpu and cleaned the acid damage and remoted the batteries.
Sourced a new skill shot actuator, new star posts, rubbers, leds etc..
New legs as it had the incorrect ones.
