Wow! Congrats on the find! The playfield and backglass look like they`re really in good shape AND a fun game (for a Bally). Enjoy!

Google about drilling locks.  I once came across an excellent site for fire fighters that showed the proper technique.

When drilling tubulars they sort of have anti- drill aspect to them in that the centre will catch the bit and turn and turn without drilling out the back screw (or all the pins).  What I do is either use a small bit to start it, then a large enough bit to drill a bit wider than the tumbler, or I drill at a little bit of an angle so it catches the non rotating part and keeps on drilling in.

Now, Terry.. it doesn't count when the original sticker price is $2200, you say "I'll take it and be there in 5 mins", show up and convince them it's broken and offer them $600

tks guys,

I will drill the lock and see how it turns out!  You are right about this type of deal, the PF is in great shape except for two small spots that need touching up. Now the hard part is to make my switch to the SS troubleshooting.  I am more familiar with EMs but I guess I will learn....

tks for the comments
