3 Days ago I received an email that sounded like an odd request. But immediately when I had read the letters "BTTF" I instantly clicked with "Back to the Future." So I had a request to come look at a BTTF pinball and at first seemed sketchy from what I was reading, guy said something about being on his showroom floor............so I'm like "What!?" Anyways, if I wasn't just so befuddled and had scrolled down a little further I would of noticed the header/signature on the email.......

I have been personally requested by the Vice President of the Delorean Motor Company located here in Houston, TX at the corner of Beltway 8 and 59 South to come diagnose/repair their Back to the Future pinball machine they have sort of as a museum piece on the showroom floor.

Here is the email.....


We've got a pretty nice BTTF machine in our waiting room that doesn't get
much use, which is why I think it tends to develop issues. It's a got a ball
feed/release issue - can you email or call me about setting up a time to
take a look at it? We're located at BW8 & 59, near IAH. Please let me know
if I can be of further assistance.

Regards,

James Espey

OMGWTFBBQ am I right???????!!!!!!!

Anyways, our appointment is scheduled on the first weekend of October.


We need to show them as a community what we can do together as a Team!
I will ensure to personally notify James of any member of KLOV that has lent me any help that has aided with the repair of this machine. Then maybe we can take pictures!

....and maybe I can try out a Delorean for a test drive! I just love that freakin car!!!!!
 
Cool opportunity. Personally I wouldn't want to rely on KLOV if I run into problems with someone else's game. Sounds like an easy fix anyway :)

EDIT: I hate to piss on the parade here but if the game has anything beyond basic problems you're going to save headaches by passing the job to someone with more pinball repair experience. It's worth checking out but the most important thing you can do is know when you're in over your head and get out.

That sounds like a dick thing to say but it's the best advice you're going to get in this thread.
