My First Vintage Pachinko Comet II - Help me figure it out

[LuckyDay]

Hey all, just signed up here.

I'm a long time arcade enthusiast (two american machines restored, and one japanese Astro City candy cab).

I recently acquired a vintake Pachinko machine from a great uncle's Estate. He lived in Japan in the 60's and was into all things Japanese, although I believe he purchased this one later on in the 80's.

I've looked around here and have seen some other Comet II machines, but I really don't know much about Vintage (or modern) Pachinkos and would like to track down all of the info I can on this one.

I tested it out today, and it seems to work. It loads the balls, fires them, and the ball return seems to work. I have yet to hit a jackpot, so don't know if that works, lol.


Here is a gallery of all of the pictures I've taken. Hopefully someone can identify missing parts, model type, or identify what year it was built.

Thanks for all the help.
