    Default NY Area Repair / Restorer

    Hi - I am new to the form but i just picked up my father's Pachinko Nishijin Sophia "America" machine (mid to lat 70's?) - after his passing.

    I would like to bring it to someone who can clean it up and get it working again (I also need to buy some balls!) - I would love for my boys to be able to play on the machine - like the many memories I had playing on it when i was a boy.

    I live in Bayside NY but can travel anywhere in the tristate to bring it to someone ...

    Any Suggestions?

    THANK you!!!

    Dave

    If it worked before...it probably is not broken! Chances are it is only jammed with balls. With pics of the back we can help you make it work again. These machines are used commercially and are quite durable and reliable. They thpically only break from severe trauma, or foolish tampering. Unclogging it is not that difficult. Add some balls from eBay, and you are playing! Restoring it to nearly new or better than new is a whole new ball game!
    You came to the right place! We have a great group of members here who are glad to help. Post some pics, front and back...we love pics! We will tell you more about it, and if anything is missing or broken.
    And...most importantly...to pachitalk!

    Welcome to Pachitalk. We love photos of machines even if they aren't functioning.
