Title: Have I lost my mind
Post by: bcharlton on September 27, 2012, 07:36:12 am
I decided to to a full restoration on my 1957 ABC bowler.  I have done a 1957 Midget Alley but nothing this large.  I hope I have taken enough pictrues.  I will say that the ball bowlers are a blast to play.  Now I have to find a place in the gameroom for it.  Wish me luck

I did one of those this spring.  It is an interesting machine.  I wasn't used to the tiny balls.  Different from a United, but fairly easy to work on.

It had a few wires cut and the main gear assembly in the lane area (forgot the name) had bent gears that locked the game when it tried to go through it's cycle at the end of the frame and add up everything.
