Interchangeable parts on bingos/pins

Is it worth picking up a cheap bingo for parts to use on a em pin?
Never seen the inside of a bingo and wondered if it would have some
useful stuff inside (coils, switches, etc...)

I do not think it would be a good idea to get a bingo for parts and try
to use the parts on em pinballs.

Maybe since you can pick the bingo up cheap it might be worth while
trying to fix the bingo so it works correctly. You might enjoy having a
working bingo for your pinball pleasure. If you do not enjoy having or
playing the bingo you could always sell it to a person who enjoys the
bingo pinball machines.

What is the name of the bingo pinball machine ?
