GTFOH I acquired my Jurassic Park from Alan!!!!!
Funny story, I left the pinball legs at his house & didnt realize it until I was at Shoney's in Kentucky. I called & he already left but said the legs were on the side of his house for me & he was waiting for my call..................whew................FYI: Shoney's in KY isnt like the ones in STL back in the 80's.
At the time there was the most bling'n fully & I mean fully restored AFM, it was so pretty that if I bought it I would never play it.
He has a GNR on ebay right now, if it were a grand less & my GF didnt threaten to kill me I'd snap that thing up quick (after seeing his mustang I decided he was making too much money off me lol).
Here is my buddy's site, the game list of very out dated as are the pics since he has built an addition & really ramped up the games: http://www.cppinball.com/
Knowing him has saved me well over $100k ;D
Sorry for hijacking your thread with my shoney baloney :angel:

More Cowbell:
A lot of talk about prices and values in this thread. I've been thinking about it a lot lately since I just bought another pin (my 4th). To me, these are investments in fun. They hold their value very well since they're not making any more (meaning, the older ones) and you can't MAME them (PinMAME is no where near playing a real pin). So you're essentially just tying your money up in something you can enjoy for a few years and then get your money right back out of it. Yes, the market fluctuates (down right now) but even when it's down, it's not down 80% or anything. Maybe you lose a few hundred bucks. Wasn't it worth it to have a great machine for a few years? My problem is that I grow emotionally attached when I put time and effort into restoring or fixing machines and don't want to give them up. MB looks like a great pin, btw. Maybe someday I'll "invest" in one. ;D

I finally got around to reading this thread. Nice find! Enjoy it!
I noticed it has the DCS sound system (same as was used in the MK2 game). Wow, it must REALLY sound good!
Congrats!

It's loud! I think you can crank this up to like 30 (volume level) and at 12 or 13 it's blaring!
Cool thing is they offer upgraded speakers; the machine even has a sub! :woot
