Title: New Guy From Phoenix Post by: lacerta1974 on April 25, 2014, 12:18:08 pm Hello Everyone,
I'm new to the hobby of restoring classic arcades. So far I've done Donkey Kong and am about to finish up Centipede this weekend. I've been watching a lot of John's Channel...so informative. This weekend I'm picking up a Bally-Midway 10 pin Deluxe bowling arcade that a friend of mine picked up for me on Craigslist (sort of half arcade/half shuffle board). I wanted to see if anyone has any experience with this machine. I've found it difficult to find anything online...like tech manual on the arcade. I can't wait to get my hands on it and see what I have to work with. Thanks...look forward to getting plugged into this community.

If i recall correctly that game is VERY mechanical but I don't believe any more difficult to fix than a good EM pinball machine.

If it's like Baby Pac and other Bally pinball games, watch out for the batteries on those MPUs.
