This game also came off a container re-imported from Argentina. At first glance it looks fairly complete - not as many missing pieces as compared to the Dracula. The rotating gun mechamism is intact, as are most of the plastics and ramps. The interior is filthy, but looks like a fairly simple clean job.

January 2008: I have removed the playfield from the cabinet and have stripped it down on both sides. The cleaning job on this game is extensive - years of filth and crud are embedded everywhere.

Update Mar 3, 2008: I have ordered parts for this game and am proceeding with the restoration. Pictures shown here are the game being stripped - you can see the dirt, playfield gouges and insert lifting.The wiring has been removed and requires painstaking cleaning to get all the dirt off.

Update May 14, 2008: I have completed the playfield strip down and there are major issues with the playfield, gouges and paint strips. There has been an attempt to try and paint over these areas, but not very well. Luckily I have been able to acquire a new playfield for this game, and will start the rebuild once it arrives.
