I am so psyched about this pickup I had to share :

I have a close encounters I restored over the course of the last 6 months. It has all new boards. I bought a very nice unpopulated playfield that i cleaned, polished, and waxed before transfering everything over. I located all of the parts I needed to make the playfield and playability 100%. Unfortunately the machine didn't show as nice as I would've liked. The backglass needed alot of touchup due to flaking. The cabinet needed touchup as well

Now for the pickup :

Someone locally listed the same machine in nonworking condition for $250. It has the best backglass on a ceotk I have ever seen and the cabinet is super clean. I was so impressed with the backglass I did not even try to talk them down. Now I am in the process of putting together 1 excellent machine.

As for the extras. Everything tested good except the mpu. Im hoping to put a ni wumpf in it and sell it for enough to get my money back out if it.

Thanks. Hard to tell from the pics but the 1 on the right is in much better condition. The one on the left is for sale. Works 100%. Playfield is excellent for the age and it has a new ni wumpf installed
