Interesting one: the arcade I work on games for just picked up a 1974 Skylab pinball. The playfield is pretty good, but the backglass has some really bad spots (Skylab for example, is down to paint flecks - anyone have a source for Pantone Red?)
I do have one question: I'm leaning towards replacing both flipper coils. There is a lot of play between the slug and the sleeve, and it's the old metal sleeve style.
I'm thinking of ordering two coils with new sleeves, just to give it a running start, to go with the new beer seal, rubber ring kit, and thorough cleaning / going through it is going to get.
Are there any thoughts or experiences out there? I also have a working Jubilee in the wild at the same arcade, and the flipper coils don't have the same "looseness"
