PINBALL PROBLEM

MODIFICATIONS
As shop foreman for a fairly
large operation in Southern Cali-
fornia-our route extends from
San Luis Obispo to the Mexican
border-I'm always on the look-
out for new ways to improve the
games we operate. Most of our
changes are made to improve a
game's reliability, but after hav-
ing such great success with your
Trak 10 and Tank modifications, I
began looking for other modifica-
tions we could try.
The April Play Meter carried
an ad for a Challenger Customiz-
ing Kit that will add three new
tracks to the two tracks already
programmed.
.
With a recently opened mind
toward game modification, I
ordered the piggy-back board
and a new front plexiglass with
the name "Gran Prix" stencilled
on it. The kit arrived a few days
later, and after some hair-pulling
over unclear instructions, we
soon had a working "Gran Prix"
game with repainted black and
white sides and a sharp new
appearance.
The game is now on location
and doing very well.
Because our local distributors
are busy with the business of
selling new games, I depend on
Play Meter to keep me informed
about new products such as
these. I especially look forward to
"Technical Topics" in both Play
Meter and Update.

We really find your maga-
zine of great value to us and feel
that it pays for itself. We also
hope you can aid us in a problem
we have.
In all our efforts, we have yet
to come up with a way to keep
our pin balls clean. J & L leaves a
film that attracts carbon; car wax
is nearly impossible to remove
totally. We even tried Shaklee
Basic H, but it doesn't clean
bands very well at all. Any
advice would be a big help to us.

BUSINESSI
Thanks again for a fabulous
pUblication.
