Wow. That is, ladies and gentlemen, what a project is. In a pinball
dictionary they should have a picture of that thing next to the word and
definition. Playfield might not be that bad too, although chances are it is,
since all that dirt layer is actually protecting it from damage. Missing
the transformer too. It seems it was a donor in its previous life and they
stripped it for all the good stuff. Who knows what else is missing, I'd
guess magnets, magnet board, hand, bunch of switches etc... etc... Maybe
worth 400-500$ for parts, maybe.

Check out his other auctions. He has some other "Gems in the rough" too.

Actually, he is a container guy who brings in tons of machines. Word
around here (South Florida) is that the supply is getting thin, and
more "project" games are coming up from Latin America, particularly
Argentina. So, my guess is that he either cannibalized this one to fix
others, or bought this one cheap to fill up a container. We are
starting to see more oddball stuff as the supply of newer Williams
games become harder for these guys to find. Starting to see Bell
Games, Mr. Do, Zaccaria and other stuff, tons of older populated
playfields and other stuff. Condition is all accross the board and
guys who know what to buy can do pretty well, as the container guys do
not seem to know parts values on older machines, for the most part.

At least he's reasonably honest in his description. I was waiting for
the "doesn't work, probably just a fuse" line.

Judging by the rest of the other items he's selling, he probably
bought all of these (or trash picked them) off an operator who was
using them for parts machines.
