Re: The Clown
Good looking machine nick6969, although it looks like the clown harlequin has had a bad makeover.

Re: Myers double Road Test
Love these road test machines. Takes me back 65 years to our holidays on the south west coast where we would play them.

Re: Ahrens Great Golf Game
Would like to play this game. What a strange bottom rail to the window frame. I realise that it follows the course contour but looks quite odd.

Lovely looking trio Paul. Are you going to fit a thumb stop to the Gapwin payout knob or just leave as is?

Re: BMCo identification
Looks like the cups are trying to imitate the airplane cup design. Coin entry was in many cases just a rectangular plate. If it had shaped/curved ends, it usually had the entry slot raised from the plate. It would be interesting to see pics of the mech to see if it has been altered or is the origin...

Topic merged - Site Admin.
I have had a couple of these ball retaining pegs milled up and wondered if anyone has had any experience of fixing these into the machine and, if so, could give me any useful tips and guidance regarding the installing of these little chaps.
Thanks in advance.

One vital thing to remember toonboy, be exceptionally careful with the front glass. Almost impossible to find a replacement should it break.

I could probably fit it in, but Sally would have to go, and it's her house.
I bet it would take another £700 to stock it up to play.
Perhaps the £1k is to give to the buyer to take it away!

Re: Allwin identification
Interesting that many old machines that once served their working life in arcades etc have, over the last couple of decades, been altered from their original condition perhaps to make them more attractive to potential buyers. Take the BMCo below, started out (probably) as an 'Air Plane' or 'Flyer' ...
