Needs a shop job BAD! The broken rubbers look great sticking out like
that, also the rust towards the top. If your local and can pick it up
for a couple of hundred, not bad, depends on whatelse is wrong with it.

I think you'd better like the yellowed cabinet just the way it is,
because it probably won't improve with cleaning. The white paint used
by Chi Coin on cabinets seemed to chemically bond with cigarette smoke,
making the cabs all look like they'd been left soaking in a public
urinal. Not pretty.

is that pantyhose tied around the front legs?

That is a dirty pin. The clear pf plastics actually look like rusty metal!
Hollywood was in the lineup at my local bowling/skating place and we
played it a lot. I have a Cinema and it's still fun. They're not that
bad to work on.

I think the value of that pin will greatly be influenced by how many
quarters are left over in the coin box ;-0

It's not too bad of a player, but CC pins have
very little value. I parted out one of these many
years ago. It had been left outside, in the yard
for over a year. A little cleaning, and it was playable!
Playfield and backglass were destroyed by rain.
They are excellent 'starter' pins.

Let me just say that my first pin in this hobby was CC Hollywood. I
bought one from the man...Mark Mentzer himself. It was in much nicer
condition that this one if that says anything. This one needs some
major work... the clear portion of the plastics are no longer clear,
some major rust issues and the rubbers are shot. It obviously isn't
going to work. You'd best know how to fix EM machines if you consider
this one.
$50 - $75 would be fair.... to part it out...
If the weird person in the back is included I'd be even more afraid.
