I bought this for 4K and added a DK power tap with a strip of lights in the back and one in the topper, also added side panel art from pingraffix. The games looks like it just came of out the box, everything is like new, plays even better than it looks, just want to get back my investment. $4000 and its yours. Pics available here, let me know if you want any other specific shots. Thanks

It's worth mentioning that the game has a Diamond Plate playfield. Very uncommon. Most Sys. 11s shipped with a regular playfield (and mylar applied). Williams started testing applying clear coat to some Sys. 11 games and branded them "Diamond Plate". Testing was successful and all DMD games shipped with clear applied -- we can thank Pat Lawler for the idea even though, in hindsight, he now thinks it was a terrible idea.

Good luck on the sale1

Why does he think it was a bad idea?
I'd assume he thinks this because the diamond plate effectively extended the life of machines on locations allowing operators to keep them on route longer leading ops to have to replace them less frequently and in turn buying fewer.

Edit: Beautiful example of a Whirlwind, someone is going to end up with a sweet pin.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Exactly.
