Are boards for most cocktail pinball machines interchangeable?

I have a Star Shooter cocktail pinball machine (Allied Leisure, 1979) but I'm missing the boards and some other parts. Can these be taken off another game (like Roy Clark/The Entertainer, Take Five, Circa 1933, Disco 79 and Eros One) and used in Star Shooter without modification? It's the main MPU and the small board on the tilt/knocker side.

Does anyone know where I can get these boards? I also need flipper mechanisms. Are replacements available or do I have to get them off an existing game?

Thanks for any help.
 
I had an Eros One but have no idea how interchangeable to boards are. I think some may be since the playfields were practically identical except for the painted graphics.

As for purchasing a board... Good luck! Parts for those machines are not at all easy to come by. As far as I know, no one makes any repro parts for those pins because they're just not loved much. All I can say is to post in here in the WTB section and keep an eye on eBay. They do pop up at times, but not too often.
 
I have both a Circa 1933 and an Eros one, the boards are interchangable on all Allied lesiure cocktails. If you find a good source for boards let me know. I have 3 broken ones.
