Various Rolling Stone Machines

[tncm]

I recently picked up a machine that I used to play when I was younger. I was not versed in vintage Pachinko machines, I was only looking for a machine that looked like I remember. Looking around on the forum, I have seen various pictures of the Rolling Stone machine which look similar to what I have. Where I am seeing differences is in the back of the machine and not so much on the front. I would like to start a re-build of this machine, since it currently doesn't work. I can presume that there are missing pieces from the machine. The obvious one that I see is the two plastic tear-drop pieces that help keep the balls inline when entering. I also believe that a jackpot reservoir is missing, but not for sure. I did remove the ball area underneath the glass. Any help on this machine would be useful. I know that I have allot of work ahead of me, so any information on the machine and sources on where to obtain vintage parts and help would be appreciated. RS2.jpgRS1.jpg

Is there something you need to see in particular? I can send more pics that's not a problem!! I guess with the research that I have found, the jackpot reservoir looks like it's missing. I am located in Fresno.

if you split the back in to 4 quarters a better pic of the lower left side would be the best..

Thank you all for the welcomes!! Here are the pictures to help. Looking to the left of the Nishijin sticker, it looks like there should be something there. Otherwise I don't see how the balls would get out from that area.

at the top the ball stop is tripped..

the jackpot reset is on the wring side of the wire

the lower jack pot overflow is on the wrong side of the shooter tab

the last pic you posted

at the very top of the pic you can see the elbow.. there are balls there.. the metal tab on top of the elbow is flipe up and over.. it stops balls from traveling to the lower hopper.. flip that little tab to the right and balls should start flowing..

pic 3 of 8

there is a wire that comes from the lower hopper tube

it is bent like a mountain or a kinda z

that wire is on top if the plastic stud of the clear ball load lever.. move that wire to the underside of the plastic stud on the clear ball load lever..

this one is hard to explain

in pic 2

there is a longer wire that is doubled back on itself.. it comes from the ramp of the jackpot.. when balls role form the jackpot the weight of the balls push that ramp down.. that then raises the long double wire..

your double wire is resting on the jackpot ball release lever.. move the double wire under the wire stud it is resting on..

hope that all makes sense
