Wow, this is a nice working EM project for somebody. Kinda gaudy looking but a sign of the times. But in good shape and priced fairly so you could easily break after kicking the ball around for a while, enjoying a pin from 1970. The drops targets look fun. I'd crank the back levelers and toss in a couple of 'yellow-dot' coils from PBR to power it up for a speedy game.

Looking at IPDB, rare pin with only 1175 made. Decent pics there to help reproduce the sideart.

Machine now 100% working.
Except for the cabinet paint, it is a quite nice machine, and fun
with its drop targets and the changing flower 'power' values.

Last issue was interesting: was reverting to player 1 on 2-player games, as soon as
100 was scored on player 2, but only with the 1000 counter at zero on player 2.
Issue was a shorted contact pair to another, on the 100 counter for player 2. Was fun to trace!

BTW, I also threw in/installed a new lock & keys for the cashdoor.

Truckfarmingcanuck is passing as he does not perform cabinet repaint.

Thanks,
- Sylvain.
