Default Does anyone fancy a free pinball machine?

My brothers moving house on the 1st and has three pinball machines in his garage. One may or may not have gotten slightly damp. So would suit someone to possibly restore it.

It needs to be collected before the first, and it's located in Eddlesborough, Bucks.

All keys etc are there.

Unfortunately Data East arent collectable like for instance a Bally Williams,but winters coming and I could do with a project...someone has to keep these old pins working...once theyre gone theyre gone....although if the cabs fecked it wont be worth salvaging

Wow! They look so retro! If they were from 1950's, I would have told Sparrow. You know the stinge bag would love a freebee any time of the day.
