Ace. Had loads of '50's/'60's electromechanicals, but never a pre-flipper machine. Some of them have really nice designs.

Always wanted a Tuck Shop. never even saw the listing.

That was quite a faff trying to get the springs back on with the machine built up but hey ho, live and learn. A set of picks is invaluable for putting springs back on. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/354806222465?epid=2256107848&hash=item529c194e81:g:-vAAAOSwHxJkbkUq&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4Jxqc%2...

Brilliant!
She's gonna go a long way.

Watched the video last night. Great looking machine.

Great work.
Although using WD40 isn't the best idea, a light coating of 3in1, or sewing machine oil will work much better.

The hydrolastic suspension ia a PITA, too.

Excellent. When I was landlord of The One Tun in Goodge St W1 we had a very heavily used jukebox. I can't remember how I found it, but obtained a 45 single (CDs had only just come out) which had no recording on it. So for 20np you could buy yourself 3 minutes of silence. It was very popular. BP :co...

The 'coin reject arm' you've taken off is actually the arm that pushes coins into the overflow chute and into the cash box, when the payout tube is full.
Looks like a good project. Those Aristocrat mechs are relatively simple and built like a tank.

I remember him telling me a collector had bought most of them. He only had a few jukes, & a load of '60s Jubilees & Aristocrats left.

It'll be worth £800-1000, when restored. They are great games to play, the aim is to fill a column with balls 'till it overflows then you win a number of pennies, depending on how many balls were in the column. You need a lot more balls, for yours. Here's one I bought a few years ago, very colourful...

Looks great

That'll give me something to watch, at work.

Welcome back. Was beginning to think it was gone for good, & all we would have is American based FB groups full of people endlessly asking how much their machine is worth...

The doorstop is original. Mine has one too.

Doh! Obviously, I meant 5mm.

Go to Halfords & get yourself some of this. Lasts for ages, & is quite effective. https://www.halfords.com/motoring/engine-oils-and-fluids/lubricating-and-penetrating-oil/halfords-release-spray-500ml-621533.html?_gl=1*1hskjpi*_up*MQ..*_ga*Njk1NzIzODQ2LjE2ODA1MzQ3MDM.*_ga_VK44BRER97*MTY4MDUzN...
