Nishijin kanless ex-change machine

[alphaminor]

This machine popped up on the local CL recently and I could easily see the ex-change logo on the upper right but wasn't able to make out the nishijin label near the top tray
So after arriving at the sellers home I was checking it out for the first time expecting either a model B, or C and was a surprised to see it was a kanless
Someone added a payout cheat button at one point but it was corroded so I removed it

After getting it home I couldn't see how the cell could be removed or what was holding it in so I thought perhaps it was a cobbled together franken-pachi thrown together with leftover parts,

but today I re-examined it and almost immediately found these latches on the backImageUploadedByTapatalk1419984615.544159.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1419984639.188798.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1419984659.959097.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1419984675.410647.jpg

So it looks to be an actual ex-change machine but I don't think its compatible with either model B or C machines

Now to take some time cleaning it up ( it's filthy) and I might attempt a cell removal then
Hope you enjoy and Happy New Years!!!

I've never seen a Kanless Ex-change machine. But it makes sense as it was built in the same time as the B and C ex-change machines.

Great Find.

I knew it had the mini ball lift that recycles the loss balls but I'd forgotten that the payout system and bell run on electricity on these
Love the ring that it gives

BTW forgive all the grammatical errors in the original post
Current New Years resolutions will be
1. stop posting in a rush, and re-read everything
2. stop cutting and pasting too much
3. And.......there is no helping the run-on the sentences and punctuation thing

Happy New Years!!!
