Jennings club chief super delux
Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2018 6:40 am
Hello
Almost new to this forum and now I need some help. I found a club chief and I know it is not a rare machine in the United states but since I live in sweden this is a very nice and scarce find.
Unfortnately it does not have matching numbers and the nickel plating does have more than wanted marks and imperfections.
But what to do when slots is very hard to found over here.
Anyway, serial number of cabinett is 178 575 and reel mechanism is 181793.
So my questions. What year can the cabinett be from and the reel mechanism acording to the serial numbers?
My biggest problem is that almost all the light parts are missing. The only part I have is the left "light gaurd" that the light bulbs are supposed to sit.
So transformator, all cable assembly, top bulbplate is missing and bulb holders for the reels. The main conection in the bottom is still there.
So, I would be very happy if someone have those parts for sale.
Further more I've not make up my mind if I'm going to re plate the fronts. Suggestions?
I will dissamble the cabinett and sand the wood and put on new laquer.
It seems to me that the escalotor and cointube and coinslides is for quarters. As the top sign says.
However on the tag it is handwritten 50 cent?
The machine have been running in swedish 1 krona coin and a american quarter and swedish krona is nearly identical so I guess thats why qaurter machines is most common here. No need for modification.
Hopefully someone have or can point me to someone thats have the missing parts to sale.
Sorry for bad english.
Best regards
Christian
Edit: The funel at the award card is still there and the"funel" for the reel lights.
So transformator, right frontgaurd, top "funel" and most cable connections, cable assembly and lightbulbs is missing.
See pictures.
