    I paid $225 + fuel +wear and tear on my Highlander and a Bottle of 2005 Bargetto Merlot for the guys who helped me get it up the stairs . It was a total round trip of 244 miles

    If you like it and the machine calls to you it all depends on your buget

    I have the Circa 1933. The exact same layout as Roy Clark. I got mine for $100 about 2 years ago, but put an additional $100 into parts for a $200 total. I still have the machine. Enjoy your purchase.

    Congrats. I nearly went to look at one of those when I saw one for sale locally.

    Then I realized there would be no way I could get up to my attic man cave.

    guess it's time to install an outside hoist into that attic. you need a full size pin up there, too!

    at least borrow a cherry picker for a day, or a construction ramp to get some big toys up there.

    Howdy Folks ! I ordered LED replacement lamps for the #47's that were in the pin from Marco Specialities on Feb 25th and they are in South Carolina and they arrived today Feb 27th Thats what i call FAST ! All i can say is WOW ! the LEDs are White light and brighten up the game and i won't have to worry about the always on lamps burning out for a Very Long Time ( Note: these don't work well with the sequence lamps on the playfield they stay on even when they should be off , Darn it they are too efficent ) Here's a picture of the playfield with the LED's installed .

    You never really notice how yellow a white light is until you try a white LED. They are so much WHITER!

    It's a shame you can't use LEDs in the regular inserts but I know different machines are effected differently when using LEDs. I have LEDs in my Williams Cyclone and certain bulbs have a small glow when they aren't supposed to...but it's barley noticeable and you can really only see it when you are playing with the lights.
