WTB: Centaur CPR playfield, BG, plastics
« on: October 10, 2017, 11:53:28 AM »
Looking for any or all of CPR Centaur playfield, backglass, and plastics.  May also be interested in good quality used parts for any of these as well.  Trying to build one from the ground up.  Let me know what you've got.  Also looking for bally S&T sound board and light board as well as a power supply.  :)

the playfield mechs are going to be the biggest hurdle.

I sold my horrible, but populated playfield 2 or 3 years ago via eBay and that buyer was doing the same thing. actually offered it up here, didn't move. went for triple the ask price on eBay.


good luck with the build.  :)

Still couldn't find it on ebay.  Overlay or not.  Frankly I'd be happy if someone had a shot to shit Centaur PF that was structurally intact.  I may do a completely custom paint job and theme with newer control hardware and rules just using the layout.  So if anyone has a Centaur playfield that is just plain lost it's art but otherwise ok... :)

that's been on and off eBay for over a year. :)


saying that, I'd reach out to the seller and offer $350 shipped outside of eBay. saves you $$$, saves him another year with no buyers.

might try that.  Still have to order star inserts but at least they are readily available.  Overlay or not it looks nice.  Just difficult to get the right messages across without epay cutting off the communication.  Gonna try though

To me they’re implying that PF is a piece of shit. It’s been a decorative item for years and it might be good for the same or a coffee table. Poorly applied overlay IMO. I would stay away or ask for more pics.

Bally CENTAUR Pinball Playfield


Here is for sale an original Bally CENTAUR pinball playfield including the wood and the original set of plastic inserts. The star rollovers are not included.
This playfield was used as a decorative item in our workshop for a long time.
The artwork was restored applying an overlay that is covering most of surface of the side where the pinball rolls except first section of the ball launcher lane.
A strong mylar (5 mil) is protecting the full surface of the playfield. Clearcoat is not necessary to apply over a mylar like this.
Nice item to be used for decoration hanging on a wall or in the center of a coffee table.[/i][/b]
