Wow, very nice machine! Never saw one of those.

You should get a Fire pinball next to it, the artwork really matches up.

About that TV: did it have a composite video input on the back ? That's pretty amazing for a BW one....on the other hand, it's pretty amazing it has a toroidal transformer too...those are pretty expensive compared to regular one's and also relatively modern.

Thanks all, glad you like the results.  :)

Ooh. Like the pin. There was one on eBay Uk a while back but it got pulled before the end of the auction.

I think the part that's really made this resto was finding a 23" black and white display. I was going to put a temporary colour monitor In, but did have a 19" B&W lined up, this would have been ok but the monitor in there is perfect.

I may have another b&w cab coming sometime in the near future. I've a soft spot for them just not much space left!

Cheers, Mart.

Very nice outcome! - Like Andre said, if that not makes the pump go a little faster, I dont know what will... Beautiful!
