I received my backglass last week. It looks great! Thank you Golgatha67. Here are before and after shots.

The sit down version is what I have. I have about 10 of those tokens for my machine. I used to have hundreds of them when I was a kid but my Mom threw them out at one point :(

That was done long ago. But still breaks my heart. They are pretty rare. I had the Blue Max and Ace versions that I sold. I still have the big Flying Ace version that is the largest one. I kept that one because that is the version I used to play a lot when I was a kid. I know of only one...

I would guess it's supposed to overshoot it. If it's not on the trace then I'm guessing that is where it won't register a hit when you are off target. But hopefully someone on here has one and can confirm how theirs works.

I'm glad the trace is not broken. To clean I use rubbing alcohol and a rag. For really bad spots like the burnt area I would use 800 grit sandpaper. A toothbrush and alcohol could also help with the burnt spot. I'm sure once all that residue is off there it will quit sparking and flaring up...

I agree with dudah that the contacts and traces are dirty. I just had this problem with a Stunt Pilot that I just started restoring. I cleaned the board really good and the contacts. Then put a very light coat of silicone dielectric grease on it. That kept it from having sparks and flames...

I bought a Remington 550 gun stock to replace a missing stock. It took a little drilling but worked great. If your missing the barrel with the trigger that might be a little harder to remake. I was fortunate enough to have the barrel/trigger and was just missing the stock.

Very cool!

They sure looked like 5.25" from the pics. But you all are correct. Must be an optical illusion :)

From the pictures those sure look like 5.25" floppies and not 8".

Wow! Due to finally finding the Flying Ace which is what I have really been wanting and looking for for years I sold my Ace and Blue Max at an arcade auction. I got $150 for the Blue Max and $225 for the Ace. I thought they would go for a little more. I was expecting around $300 each. But...
