    So it appears the upper flipper mouths divert balls to the upp tulips, lower 4 mouths to the lower left and right tulips, and the bottom mouth to center bottom?
    The removed nails definitely guarantees lot of action

    Top two hippos open both tulips per side. Notice the clear tube at the side exit of the top tulips. This directs the ball to the top of the lower tulip.
    The lower four hippos direct the balls to the side of this same tube, for lower tulip only.
    Bottom probably opens center bottom tulip. They did make a funnel leading to it.
    Model C machines are cool! The whole back snaps off with 5 clips. This makes cleaning a breeze!

    for any members interested, the machine seems to be near Buffalo / Niagara Falls area. surely someone here will get it?? Not every day you see a classic 70s machine with novel features like this

    The "Local pickup only" items sometimes go cheaper or not at all. I'm fine with doing a bit of a trip to pick something I want up, but there are limits to how far I'll go for one.
