Welp, thought I'd update the game list seeing as I finally had a chance to pick up the BH that I bought from NH yesterday.  

Overall I'm very impressed with the condition of the game, especially the board set and the back glasses.  As you can see from the pictures the inner BG is 99% perfect, the only flaw was caused during shipping from NH to NY as the two left displays just barely started rubbing the display windows.  The PCB's have been very well maintained and have NO hacks at all.  None of the standard Sys80 ground mods have been done yet the thing works perfect!  Not even one spec of acid damage either, so I'm stoked.  The PF isn't too bad, it'll need a few touchups here and there but definately better than any of the BH's I've looked at previously (and what do you expect for a 25 year old game right?).

Here's a few pics for your viewing pleasure.....  (Finally uplaoded the pics below)

You got it set up or do you need a hand moving it? I am around tomorrow Sunday pretty well all day doing crap around the house if you need a hand. Might just be a bit hung over and poorer after tonights poker game with the boy's if you can live with that.

So as you can see the game isn't too bad overall.  I've been going through it to familiarize myself with all the inner workings and I've already removed the OEM motor/gear box that drives the disc in the BB.  The main shaft bushing in the gearbox is shot (it still works, barely) and the disc has just started to rub on the BG so I'll be stopping at Grainger tomorrow for a new motor.  Just hope I can modify the adaptor to fit correctly (finally get to try out my drill press!), at least until I get the correct adaptor from Ken in Jan.

Thanks for the offer Necro, and I would have replied sooner but I hadn't checked the board until after I finished setting it up.  I was able to get the whole thing down into my basement on my own without any problem.  After doing this a few times on my own I've come up with a very easy way to do this.    I'll fill you in when you stop by on Wednesday.

Guess now I should shoot a few pics of the rest of the line-up eh?

Anything to get them in and out easier is appreciated since I absolutely dread my steps. Game looks great from the pictures.
