I have nine pinball machines all from the early 80’s and require the boards to be repaired every now and then. The first time that I needed service was approximately 4 years ago on a gorgar project I picked up for a great price and the cpu & driver boards were in really bad shape I actually thought they would not be repairable. I was referred to Tim Nabours by the pinball resource so I sent an email to Tim and he responded quickly and said to send the boards and he would let me know if they are repairable or not. Tim sent me a response the next day after he received the boards and said it would take some work but could save the boards and it would probably take about 2 weeks. Well that wasn’t the case I had them back in my machine and working perfectly in 9 days that’s pretty amazing considering approximately 3 days in the mail each way. And recently I was having display issues in my sorcerer machine and I thought for sure it was the master display board that was causing the issues so I sent him the main board and within a few days he emailed me and said he found no problems with the board and sent it back to me with no charge attached to it.

I brought it out and wow - plan on a little extra time while there, as so many great item to look at in the showroom, plus he was very thorough with his check-in sheet. Within one week, he replied saying it's ready to come "home". Besides the excellent service & turnaround time, he not only fixed the score reel issue but gave a detailed list of over 17 other items that needed his attention and fixed accordingly - all for just $395 out the door! He had it all setup in his showroom so I could play it while he explained everything he did. It's the 2nd one from right. I highly recommend...
