    Default Sweet Find today!

    I was trolling the local Swap meet today and found my first single shot!

    it's a Nishijin Spohia?

    anyways, the wiring is trashed due to someone trying to wire it into 110v so a soldering I will go!!! lol

    I have all the pieces so it looks like I have a new project on my hands !!

    I guess you could use 100v, if you used the correct bulbs. but I doubt you would find any that would fit in the holder

    Sweet looking single shot. Good luck on your restoration

    Nice an early 1965 Nishijin. I have one from the same year.

    Picked that one up in Arizona so it is in great shape.

    Ball door? Not sure what you mean.


    (don't feel bad we all think of odd things to call certain parts at some point.)

    when the jackpot hopper is empty, a metal door closes over the opening where you insert the ball.

    the linkage is ok and in place properly but I think the slide is bent on it.. I guess I'll have to pull off the front cover again..

    Oh the shutoff. I'd try taking it out and flattening out any bends. Also clean the shaft for it (and the track). Don't know what else you could do, I haven't had that problem but then again I haven't played a single shot for a long period of time.
