Just finished restoring my lethal weapon 3 pinball. It turned out great. Only thing that sucked was lugging it up to my 3rd floor apartment! Below is the link to some photos. I think it turned out great! Now just need to find my next project!!!!

Very nice job. At first I thought you found one with a really nice cabinet and as I got to the end I realized how much repaint work you did. How did you match the paint? It looks really good.
 
Looks great, good job!

Was it just a straightforward clean/refurbish, or did you start with problems? Regardless, looks good. I have a DE TFTC and like it a lot. It does feel a bit different from a Williams pin for instance, but I still enjoy it and it's been very reliable for me.
 
It wasn't working when I got it but thanks to stangbat he fixed my power supply for me. Had to completely gut it and clean it. I was able to mach the paint based off of a post I found on here. Someone had the color posted so I went with that.

I am really happy with it turned out. Now I am ready for the next project! If anyone has a project machine in the nebraska area please let me know :)

Couldn't have got this machine running if it wasn't for stangbat! YOU ROCK!
 
Looks nice.

You did a great job on the restore and creating the plastics that you didn't have. Have fin playing the game, it is a lot of fun and very under-rated. If you could get rid of Mel's mug on the backglass it would be a lot nicer. That paint matched really nice.
 
Good job on the restore. I'm sure the first time you powered on the cab and played a game must have been very satisfying. Hopefully one day I will have enough courage to do a full tear down to shop out one of my games.
