Well, you already know what I think, it's a gorgeous job, Ben

Hope you get a great price that made the job worth your while, although I'm
sure the joy of restoring this one is worth something already

1. Where are the serial #s?
2. This is an earlier production game.
3. You are missing a pf plastic.
4. How can you sell such a beautiful work of art?
5. I'm Drooling!

After doing all that work, I'd keep it, till I went senile!

1. The one on the backbox is still there (6388). The one on the
cabinet was really thin to begin with, the sanding and re-paint
completely filled it in.

2. How can you tell?

3. Yes I am!

4. No room is the biggest excuse, I don't like the gameplay is the
other.

5. Sounds like someone needs an In N Out burger!

I don't see a missing plastic.. If you mean right in front of the lowest
pop-bumper, there never was one there... never seen one on a machine, in a
manual, or in a flyer. Can anyone document one there?

I have one, but to find it lying around, is another story.

Yes, it goes over the 2 posts, below the bottom pop bumper.

I even made one once.

There's a plastic set on ebay right now with what appears to be the
"lost plastic":

There was one last week that apparently had it too but looks a little
different than the one above. Maybe Ed made one of them??
