Not sure if you guys are interested or not, this is the first restore
job (And first pin I've had in 12 years) I've done in about 12 years.
Picked up this Road Show about a month ago. I didn't think to take
many before shots, it was filthy and in really bad shape. Playfield
was stripped, cleaned, and hand waxed. All broken switches and all
lights replaced, new rubbers and posts, leaf switches. Red and Ted
completely rebuilt with new coils, gears, motors. New pop bumpers.
Left flippers are in progress. Ted was completely stripped and
repainted, Red is currently being rebuilt and repainted, waiting on
parts.

I still have a lot of work to do on it. The apron is being
re-powdercoated. What do you guys think so far?
