anyone play old "bingo" type pinball machines?
anyone else ever play the old "bingo" type pinball machines?
i did years ago, and found some info on the web. there is a guy approx 30 miles from me that restores and sells them. about 137 miles of wiring inside, and more contacts than you can count to be cleaned. he unfurled a wiring schematic that was 12ft long, and said many were over 20ft! he is a retired elect engineer. he has about 15 machines ready to go there in his shop. about $1500 completly restored. not bad considering the amount of hours required to restore one. it was a great trip to see them and play them again, and makes me want to get one. i know i probably dropped > his price in quarters many years ago when i was working for TVA on a nuclear project. we did frequently win back enough to subsidize the beer however! come on, daddy NEEDS a 19! da#n, now i need that extra ball. bill, get another roll of quarters. it brings back many great memories of friday nites. |
