Brad's friend just dropped off a 1979 Bally Kiss Pinball machine that's been in his family for years but hasn't worked in years either. The game has been severely neglected and has major battery acid damage on boards as well as burnt pinball connectors, cut wires and is overall in pretty bad shape. The question is: Can I save this pinball machine?
This is Part 1 of this video series where you get to see the before service and half way point of this shop out and repair of this old bally pinball machine.
