    Talking Another new buy.

    Well I just thought I'd share my latest buy.

    I finally bought the power flash from the worlds most flaky guy. The guy is an absolute pain to try to work with. It has taken me close to 2 months to acquire this machine. I think it is also the most I have ever paid for a machine.

    From the front the machine is in great shape. (besides the chrome. typical) There is no yellowing of plastics and none of the stickers are peeling or gone.

    But it is the back that has some issues. It is missing quite a few parts and all the clear plastic is heavily yellowed.

    But the best part is...
    Spoiler


    I think I will end up replacing the complete back mechanics. I have a spare set laying around. And the cool thing is I think it is the clear on clear back. So you could be able to watch the ball and solenoids better.

    It also came with about 200 balls. I saw a few that would go in the test ball jar but the rest look pretty decent. (and that is before polishing.)

    When I get around to this one I will keep everyone updated.

    Now I have 2 china men PFs to put next to my 2 circuit racers. Odd how out of the 4 the only one that doesn't work is the one the Mopar worked on.

    100 machines and counting...

    I don't know I was looking it over the other day and comparing it with my other one and I noticed a few wires missing. Either way I will get it working eventually.
