[QUOTE="Fuseball, post: 37893, member: 539"] I've only done a close to full restoration once. My BoP had a completely trashed playfield but basically 99% worked. I got hold of a Diamondplate playfield for it with almost no wear but it had been scavenged for parts. All I had to do was strip it of any remaining parts, clean it and then carefully move everything over from the trashed but complete playfield (cleaning everything as I went). Took a few evenings but was surprisingly straightforward and accidentally solved the couple of problems that were remaining with the game. I think you're absolutely right to do the level of restoration that you're happy with. Your Big Guns is in great condition for a game that age. It really doesn't need anything more thorough. After all, these are games to be played and by definition that means they won't stay in that pristine condition for long. :) Those LEDs are looking fantastic btw. [/QUOTE]
