The renovation project is started. After I received all materials from Paul (@Asiapinball). I will certainly reach out to the community when I have question or need advice 😀. Here the first pics. Someone cut all the wires so I am repairing them.

This is also for me a big stick (I do not know if this is correct English ). In Dutch the expression is “a stick behind the door”. Now I need to make progress because you all are watching. I will keep you posted for now a lot of welding and a bit cleaning 🤪
 
Jeroen,

You might just want to hold off on soldering those wires back together because I just found something for you. I will get it in the post to you tomorrow so you should have it before next weekend.

No charge. My gift to you and another stick behind the door.

Paul

It depends how bad it is. Data east and sega used particle board for the back of the backboxes and when it gets wet it swells up or disintegrates and loses structural integrity. The sides top and bottom are plywood so don't usually get same problem. If it is still structurally OK then I would sand clean up and use satin black spray to finish. I prefer to keep as original as possible. If the back board is breaking down or feels springy and has lost structural integrity then best to replace. It should easily tap out, clean up edges of remaining cabinet with chisel or re-route if you have a router then plenty of wood glue and pin nails to secure new backing wood.

Hopefully it isn't too bad.

The green looks like battery leakage and if it is that needs to be thoroughly cleaned off including all that is on the metal backing plate.

Hope this helps.
 
Thanks, I agree with you to keep as original as possible. I already cleaned the steel backplate. The back board is all expand due to the moist, so you see that. I can replace this board but I would like to apply the warning text. Do you know if this a sticker or is this a silkscreen. Rg
 
It is silkscreened. I don't know if there are any stencils available for this - the Williams WPC ones are available at pinballcenter for Euro80, but I dont recall seeing a data east / sega stencil ever.
 
I decided to first built the total pinball machine so I know for sure that it is operational and the look at the cosmetics. I will have more days off the coming period, so stay tuned
 
It is starting to look like a pinball machine again. Only three connectors which I do not know where to put. Something for next time 😀

Idc with 3 pins is display controller power. 4 pin connector is display power. 7 pin idc I think is speakers but not 100 percent certain can check for you in morning. Progress.
 
Hi I just starter the project again. The project was a bit on hold due to some personal issues. But now I made some good progress. Unfortunately I noticed that the right ramp had some severe damage. Does anyone have an idea how to repair this or does anyone have a spare ramp. Thanks

This is picture of status. I tried to fix the decals but the playfield was to beat up so left that untouched. I placed a playfield protector and this made all the difference
