Here's a site I found while looking for info on my 1969 Bally Zip-A-Doo.
I saw postings of other Pin owners.

This place isn't too far from me. It's in Farmington Hills. Perhaps a Michigan DB Field trip should be planned ...

I heard the place is pretty much his basement, a very well organized and packed basement. He is an enthusiast of the machine and the hobby.
We need someone like that to support pachislo.

The price per unit makes a big difference, at $75-100 for a working one on CL who could make any $$ selling parts?

It's an actual building he owns. He's a pretty sucessful dentist and loves coin op items.

I had him mixed up with the guy in Chicagoland. ;) Ya Marvin has quite a building, I never made it there but next time I have to go to that area I will check him out.
