    *******
    This is a 1991 Data East Checkpoint Pinball Machine in excellent condition.  It was the first pinball machine made with a dot matrix display, as well as other features.  The theme is auto/Porsche.  It also has music selection prior to each game, first of its kind.
    I did all the restoration myself over a few years. Selling to make room.  Details below:
    Most of the playfield parts are original, cleaned and polished. Porsche matchbox toy is not original.  Some custom stainless steel flashing added to ramp plastic. See pics.
    New half-height(16x128) LED dot display, no more high power board to deal with.
    2 New Rotten Dog Boards --  Power Board and Driver Board
    NVRAM Chip
    Some lamps were replaced with LEDs. Not all.
    Newly painted legs, new adjustable feet, painted coin door, hinge & side rails.
    New lockdown bar.
    New playfield glass.
    Painted backbox, added service decal on back box
    New Checkpoint Vinyl Decals applied to the cabinet
    RetroRefurb SideBlades(TM) Mountain Graphics inside cabinet
    Backglass is in excellent condition, common lengthwise scratch from the rotating wheel screw-head middle/top.
    No acid damage on board, I did replace a few ICs on the MPU while troubleshooting when I first got it.
    The entire playfield was cleaned and restored.  This playfield often has dried and flaked off paint on the top of the playfield from the lane light being on constantly on location.  I cleaned up that, and repainted the top 25% of the playfield with HD decals, stencil and airbrush work.  4 coats of clear coat were applied and polished. See detailed pictures - the work is excellent and durable.
    See videos of machine operation below.  Room lights on and off.
