Its a Bally! New Addtion to my collection

[RiseLikeRa]

Just arrived home a bouncing Bally 873.  (Thanks Bill) I cant say its a baby since the tag and the mechanics indicate this cutie was born in 1970.  It is sleeping on its stand and getting along great with its brothers and sisters.  I am in need of a payout board M-645-164 to make all of the pays 100%.  Other than that all is well. 


Now I know it makes me a bad parent but space, or lack of space, dictates that I sell one of the children to make room for this one.  I think one of my 809's will have to be set free.


NLG members are invited to come by and see and play with the baby when in town.  Don't forget to bring a shower gift when you come.  lol.


Stay well group

Ra,

You could try contacting  vintageballyslots742 on EBay.. This is the person that bought all of Barry Foxs parts inventory.. They may have the payout board your looking for.. I can keep my ears and eyes open for one too if you like.. Nice 873 nickel machine.. I have one in my collection. I picked it up last year..

That is one of the prettiest 873's I've seen.
I have two 873's but both are jackpot machines. I'd love to have a fruit 873 machine in my collection.
Very nice, Jim

Gary and Silver:


Thank you both for the kind words.  I like Gary's game also with the Hilton belly glass as well.  I am in search of my payout board currently then all will be well.  I have seen several fruit 873 machines come up for sale on eBay in the Nevada and California regions over the last few months.  I pray that if it is your desire one will come your way real soon.

If you don't mind a used one, I might have one..my 873 had the dbl wipers and I know some of them didn't..

some nice looking machines there guys

[RiseLikeRa]

Mark I am sure that you have some nice specimens as well.  Share some pictures with us.

BTW this is the payout board that I am in need of should anyone have one lying around.

What would help me is the whole picture and especially the bottom Numbers..does yours have three 2's on the payout?

Jim:


Thanks.  I will check and get back to you soon with a picture or a better description.

I think your P O board is the same as mine..does it have dbl wipers and 3 contacts for 2 and 3 for 16..anyway I got a way you can eliminate the dbl wipers and use a newer P O board..how bad is your old board? if its just a broken trace, I would try to fix it and if its not repairable, then change it..take off your brkt and spiral cam and then give us a pic..

Jim Thank you for the pictures.  They are indeed worth a thousand words.   Friday evening will be my first chance to get inside of my game.   I will take and send you pics then. 

To all have a save and reflective Memorial day weekend.
May God continue to bless you.
