Pretty beat down machine (playfield might clean up nice, but lots of little things wrong with it), but I'm hoping it can be made to look nice enough to keep again.
So far I'm seeing:
- swing panel in backbox was unhinged for God knows how long which caused card wheel to rub against backglass, as a result the wheel decal is bubbly and the backglass has a couple semi-circle rub marks;
- beer damage (nooooo) under where coin bucket was, front 6" or so of bottom piece will probably need to be routed out and replaced with new plywood;
- front and sides of backbox have significant paint wear, dings, and lockbar hole... I know nobody makes Jokerz! stencils, but I was hoping the press start might be a stock graphic someone made one for... after a brief search looks like it isn't;
And the speaker grills need a repaint, it needs new score cards, flippers don't work (think everything else does though) and the list goes on. Already ordered about $300 worth of new stuff for it, just looking for some odds and ends yet.
Speaking of odds and ends, I would really like to find any of the following:
- card wheel, or just the decal
- backglass (figure I will just triple thick and touch mine up, but if someone has a NOS one to sell...)
- upper playfield translite(s) (I think the playfield itself on mine is in decent, working shape, but it is clear even now that the translite underlay is warped to shit)
- new Rottendog repro electronics (either the LED replacement displays, repro PSU, or repro MPU, never hurts to have spares)
- NOS plastics, upper playfield
I will post pics later of the machine, but I think I also found a nice freebie in the machine and am not sure what it is exactly. It's a sweet little black duramold case with the Williams logo on it. Not sure what it is for, did these pins include spares cases? Is it a technician's tool case minus the tools? Pic:
EDIT: Gol'durnit it's just the coin box lol. XD
