    Default Done with my Super Tulip restore

    This is a vintage 1973 Nishijin "4200" AKA model B Pachinko Machine I call "Super Tulip". The lights have been set up to work off 2 C-cell batteries. The background was replaced with "Five Flowers" artwork. Playing action on this machine features the ball entering the top of the main attraction; it opens the right or left tulip, if a ball enters the main tulip it opens and the center bottom tulip opens. This machine has three standard tulips and one main tulip, two pay pockets and it also has 6 spinners. All pay out are 15 ball.

    This one was a lot of fun to work on as it had all it's parts.

    Looks outstanding! What was the most enjoyable part for you? I know you said the parts were all there. But do you enjoy any portion of the restoration more than another or procrastinate with some portion because it's not as enjoyable? Just curious.

    Again, just outstanding!

    The reassemble was the most enjoyable, not having to stop and hunt up parts ever screw and nail was there. I guess everthing just click on this one, I can't think of one problem on it.

    Can you post a close up picture of the ashtray? It looks interesting with the extra detail you added there.
