Wow! I just had a quick look at their Machines For Sale list. There's no way they sold a Gottlieb Atlantis for $4795 or a Gtb '300' for $4795! Those prices are madness. I would be a very upset first-time pin buyer when I realized I spent close to $5000 on a $500 machine.

I have an idea Sylvain... we should take a cheap EM, I do the cab, playfield and backglass, you spitshine the mechanicals and we sell it on Ebay for 5000$ and split the profits. lol
... I love bullshit ads. Here's what I see, apart from the ridiculous price:
- this machine is from 1970... not 1969 - judging on the pics, oh it is original alright. It needs a serious restoration and needs to be much older before you can even start considering it as a collectible antique. - the reason they only made 350 of them is because this was an Add-A-Ball version of Road Race. So this was a low production machine built to go around strict gambling laws in certain states and countries - This machine is FAR from being pre-Nascar. Any enthusiast will know this. Nascar was formed in 1948, but stock car racing goes back as far as 1905 on daytona Beach, which was considered THE place for speed racing prior to adopting the Bonneville Salt Flats in 1936, which is coincidently when organized racing started in Daytona. 12 years later, they decided to create ban association to better organize it all. If anything, this machine was built at a peak in popularity in Nascar racing, being right in the muscle car era.
I have not really paid attention to pinrescue and their ads, but if I were Diane Sauer, I would make sure to tell them to take me off their list of friends.
... and you guys think Alouette are unethical. Sheesh... lol
