Hello, I found this 1982 E-1000 series machine on Craigslist for $50.  The machine started life in a casino in Atlantic City, then was converted for an arcade on the boardwalk.  The slot was in pretty bad shape when I got it.  The machine would turn on but not play, the door would not shut, the belly glass and bezel were cracked and dented. After a few months and a lot of help(and parts) from Barry Fox, the machine is back to life!

Wow, that's quite a difference, at least externally. It looks much better with the right glass. applause 
Did you disconnect the "skill stop" buttons? Scratch Head 2

How did the inside turn out? (pun intended Tongue Out)

The skill-stop button have been disconnected.  The wiring was extremely messed up when I installed the new e-prom for the game.  The e-prom for the token machine actually paid out about 110%!! I may wire the skill-stop buttons back if I have some time in the future.  The inside of the machine is not really that nice.  This machine was really, really used!

Well, you put the work into it and got it running again, and it looks a lot more like it should look with the glass that you got from Barry.

I wouldn't reconnect the buttons if it were mine. I figured that you left them in place because there was no way to cover the holes that they had made in the door. bawling

Thanks for posting pictures of your project. K+ wave

How does one put skill-stop buttons on a slot? I assume that a reel tilt error would show up if you stopped the reel from spinning? But I guess there's a circut for that.
