Do not try this at home folks. The Pimp is a professional graphic artist. And he's fast! He knocked out the William's Phoenix stencil for me before I blinked. Also I've been using Photoshop for 24 years. He runs circles around me.
Super cool Jeff. I know how much work goes into cleaning up this old artwork. I’ve never done a full art package but have done various labels . The amount of time it takes to redraw and color is daunting. You make it look easy , as any master of their craft does . Thanks for doing what you do so well can keep these old machines looking their best ! You’re the man Pimp !
Wow. Looks awesome. Makes me want to repaint my stingray.
Every pin at some point deserves to get Pimped. 🤣
Pinball Pimp the Legend, we go back 15 years and I’ve had the pleasure to see many machines in person before and after, and I’ll tell you this is one of my favorites, he’s a Black belt of the craft. The best in the business. I’ve had the pleasure to see this machine in person and I got to play it, you are not gonna find anything better. It was a great nostalgic machine for me to play because I grew up in the 90s and that was the first Jurassic Park I’ve seen, the pimp has done it once again with his magic touch and expert skills. All the custom trees & other installs really made it pop out. 💯 🫡 As the PINBALL KING says himself keep on flipping
Great game , but good call . Sometimes it’s just easier to let them go . To really get that game back to its glory it needs a full restore which is tons of work which I know you know . And you have to find someone that wants to pay you a lot of money so you can recoup your time and materials which is also very tricky ! Nice job pimp !
Nice work Jeff ! Love that game !
Star Trek isn’t worth a lot. It’s an okay game though.
Great game,love the art on the backglass.
I had a nice one of these a few years ago, sold it. BUt over all, a very fun game. (sorc, not the star trek lol)
Yeah, Sorcerer seems to still be popular. I just cut a stencil set for this game this morning for a customer restore.
Ha this is awesome Jeff! Don't let the fame go to your head and forget about us average every day pin heads! 🤣🤣🤣 Catch you at TPF, Pimp on!
Looks pimpin, Jeff. Nice work.
There's a restored Star Trek ad on Pinside in California for $10,000. Assume that's the same one.
@@AdamGtr86 No, I never ended up doing a full restore on the machine for Rick. I just got it up and running and shipped it out to him in Vegas. I was supposed to do a full restoration but they changed their mind at the last minute ☹️ you can go out to my Pinball Pimp website and click on RESTORATIONS and see a lot of these classics fully restored that I’ve done over the last 15 years
Now they just need that "right" collector.
Great, thank you!
Great restoration. I *personally* don't like the "pimping" of any machine but I can see the appeal - this came out very nice. This machine scoops are almost pristine, very good condition. Mine are super worn and I'm too afraid to do some wood repair!
Awesome! Great tips on how to clean the playfield, I’ve never thought the magic eraser with alcohol would get rid of all the dirt deep in the playfield!
The lights on the skateboard where the trucks usually are is cool. Did you make that?
@@johnmcclane2139 yes that was a custom skateboard light that I painted using my Centaur stencils on a blank skateboard and using four LED red bulbs as the wheels
Awesome content thank you for sharing
Wish you would of gotten the owners reaction
I got this Pin I need to do this to my Pin it has a lot of issues 😂
Looks amazing! I didn’t know about the drill polishing trick ! Thanks
@pinballpimp Where did you get your led lights from? Was it a specific package/kit for DE JP pinball? I just got this exact machine and am hoping to buy a kit that’ll change everything to LED. Any details are genuinely appreciated. Great video by the way!
www.pinballbulbs.com/products/jurassic-park-pinball-ultimate-led-lighting-kit
@@PinballPimp Thank you so much!
VERY nice production! I shopped mine a year ago...had so many baggies of parts. Tip for anyone is to take a ton of reference pics before the tear down as the manual for JP is not 100% accurate.
Great video. Where did you get the speaker and side blade art? They look so good.
I had to order them from europe. The ONLY place to find this particular art style www.wizardmod.com/product-page/jurassic-park-data-east-pinball-wizblades www.wizardmod.com/product-page/jurassic-park-data-east-fence-pinball-wizpanels
@@PinballPimp thank you!
Good video 👍 a thorough shop job and a few mods the machine looks great. Wouldn’t exactly call it a restoration though. Usually that would mean at least some cabinet work, playfield repairs and servicing the mechs, pop bumpers rebuilt, board repair etc. I don’t even think you changed the coil sleeves.😀
@@gavinfrancis8271 I did do some black cabinet work touchup. I didn’t need to service all the mechs as this game was so nice everything was like new. I didn’t need to rebuild the pop bumpers fully and yes I did change the coil sleeves.
why fkn LED s....the light is not warm like original bulbs
@@renerook3736 nice comment … the original incandescent bulbs give off absolutely no light the playfield is so dark on the original it’s not worth playing the game.
@@PinballPimp lol I have this machine at my home and I never had that issue you mention. You need to go to an optician if you cant see the playfield on an original S.I. Sure you try here to defend your bussines of turning/ pimping each classic Pinball machine down into some mainstreet look of Las Vegas, but in fact you were destroying the original charm of the genuine machine
It turned out great! I hope the new owner puts a color DMD in it. It really looks great on JP.
Yo Id love to see how you torched that clear ramp! Maybe next time?
Once you finish cleaning and polishing you take your butane torch and just pass it over the ramp. You will see where the heat is hitting the plastic. Keep it moving, you can always make a second pass, but once you melt it your hosed.
My hot take, leds are great in older games as long as you dont add colored leds. Fastest way to make it look tacky in my opinion. Frosted non ghosting Warm whites are the way to go
What a find ! 💯
No doubt! 💯
I miss my JP pin. I sold it about 5 years ago. It was NOT in as great of condition as this one is. She is dirty but that's it. I'm glad to see someone removed the batteries as well! Looking forward to seeing her completed.
@@TxJayYT yes you’re going to be blown away when you see what I did with this. I’ve had so many Jurassic Park machines come through my shop over the years I really don’t care about this game anymore…. but when this one came through this NICE I had to do something extra special to it before it left the building! Stay Tuned 🤙
Good to see you uploading again Jeff!
@@willierants5880 yes thanks and I have more coming. It takes at least 10 hours to edit down one of these episodes. I wish my time was unlimited 😁
“Gone fishin’, leave a message” *beeeeeep*
You are an artist!
Very nice, sir.
$1,000.00 in parts where? Amazing job though. I was able to land one of these from a couple for $1600.00 3 years ago. Had 1 quarter ever inserted into it.
More like $800 in parts…. the color LCD DMD was over $500 alone. 3 Flipper rebuilds, colored rubber, mirror blades and shipping costs!
Beautiful work!!! I had a Cirqus Voltaire that you guys did at some point and it was a beauty!!!!!
Lookin pimp. 🎉
beautiful job, What did it cost your customer for the restoration?
Hey Thanks… It was way cheaper 14 years ago! These days a new playfield, full electronics, all new plastics, hardware and chrome will cost you around $3000. If you start with the new cabinet that’s another $1000. I have around 80 hours on average for a restoration like this. I’ve gone nuts on a few where you get into 140 hours. I charge $60 per hour so average labor is around $5000.
WOW!!!!!!!! Fantastic? Amazing job. Congratulations
Wow! Nice job. The full pimp restore..LOL
Awesome job Jeff ! My first restore was of a Mata Hari . I used your photos as a reference that you have posted on your website. And of course a set of your beautiful stencils ! I live in Massachusetts and ended up selling it to a guy in Florida. Came out awesome . Thanks for sharing this with us !
Hey, thanks for the compliment and glad you used my stencils. I plan to show at least another 20-30 machines coming soon!
Great video, dude. Can you describe/link to the screwdriver you use?
Thanks for the compliments and glad you enjoyed the video. The screwdriver I’ve been using for over a decade is a Kobalt ratchet drive screwdriver from Lowe’s
You ruined a perfectly good cab. Congrats.
Looks pretty sweet to me !
😳
I like the pace of the video, not boring real time you see. Nice job on the insert touch-up. That level of detail is appreciated by the discerning enthusiast.
Thanks for sharing Jeff, looks great!
Thanks for WATCHING! Pimp
Amazing! A Master class of restoration Thanks for posting.
Thanks… please subscribe if you haven’t already if you want to see lots more just like this 😁
Wonderful outcome Jeff, every machines deserved to be Pimped Out! I'm gonna get my pimp on while working on some Williams System 6a boards today. 🦾
Pimp them boards… they’re just as important as the pretty stuff!
That part about the belt drive swap on the fishing reel was super helpful. If I didn’t have your video it would’ve taken me an hour!
Glad I could HELP Killer!
Great video Jeff! Extremely helpful for first-time restoration pinheads.
Glad it was helpful. Stay tuned Friday at 3 PM when I drop the final EP3! I got plenty more machines coming up after this one!
Can’t wait
