Bally Sea Ray
Picked this up yesterday. It was listed on CL for quite awhile but the guy would never budge in his price and kept turning down offers. Anyway, I managed to talk him down a bit.
It was made in '71 and has a great theme and the artwork is outstanding, it's the pointy people style by Christian Marche.
Anyway, the game overall is in great shape but the plastics are pretty faded. I don't take any pics of the machine before I took it apart so the one pic below of the assembled machine is not mine. All the rest are of my actual machine. So far I've removed the playfield and have cleaned and gapped all the switches and switched all the coil sleeves from the original metal to plastic. Those are a couple of the first things to do on the old EM's. Next will be to rebuild the flipper mechs and install original coils for the flippers. The ones in there were added sometime later and are actually weaker. Not sure why that was done. Then clean the playield and go thru all the switches in the head and replace the 15 or so coil sleeves in there. Lastly I'll go thru the switches in the cab.
