Hi all,
I am selling my Congo pinball machine which I have just finished restoring. I planned to keep this machine long term but another machine I have been looking for has become available so I need to free up some funds!
I have carried out an extensive restoration of this machine (the details of which are available here: http://www.pinballinfo.com/community/threads/congo-restoration.16964/ ).
I have carried out the following to the machine:
As you would expect the machine is running perfectly and looks fantastic!
The cabinet is in good condition but does have the odd mark here and there - nothing serious though. The colours are still visible but have faded slightly (to a uniform degree on all sides).
I am asking £1800.00 for the machine.
