Hello From Washington State.

Hello,

I just purchased this machine from a friend who rescued it from the garbage heap. It's a little rough but looks fairly complete. As I have restored a few pinball machines, this looks to be a fun little project. I believe it was made in 1975 as the tag has a 51 on it. I am looking for a place that has basic supplies for sale like new rubber bits, pachinko balls and a schematic (it's a Sanyo machine). I have no idea what it's called.

Thanks a bunch!
Fred

Welcome to the forums and congratulations on acquiring your first pachinko. Be careful, they tend to multiply! If you have some pics of the rear of the machine, that might be helpful.

As far as parts, you can buy some reproduction parts from these vendors below, eBay has worked well for me as well and you never know, forum members here have been very, very generous to me along with many others.

Thanks Sparky. I like your pin, I have 4 myself, Judge Dredd, Twilight Zone, Star Trek TNG and Dirty Harry. I've attached some better pics of the unit. I have electrical and soldering experience, so nothing scary about fixing this unit.

Oh, and quite the wiring job done by a previous owner.

Not sure if these pics will help but I attached just in case...

Vary nice machine for one going to the scrap heap. Don't see any water stains and not much rust on frame. Center not bad either, turtle I think.
