when I pulled the real machine out all those wires were just hanging loose cut off and that seems to be the way IGT would rebuild machines back in the eighty's make  you get a lot of confidence in IGT today
I have two identical machines that were rebuilt the same time by them and they both have the same wiring issues gotta love it 1 I'm going to fix up and put that machine in the 815 cabinet that I have laying around

At one time IGT had a crackerjack refurbishing unit here in Reno.  These guys were masters, and could fix about any machine made.
then IGT got cheap and didn't like the competition of selling others' machines and that was the end of that.
Too bad.

Make sure you solder the bottom of the ring of each paytab to the paytab, else you may find you have intermittent shortpays or nopays...
Wow, that looks like a virgin board.

yes old reno know I soldered them very well I put all the jumpers on but one I forgot to connect the lower f terminal to the upper after awhile it just wouldn't pay on 50 or 100 don't figure :rotfl:

and then I took out the 4 wheel machine and I put a three reel machine and it now I'm having a few more hectic issues with it I will get it all done somehow this week so I can play it

On the upper glass it says "Last Chance Nugget". Was that the name of a casino back then maybe in Reno, Las Vegas or someplace,,,, or is that the name of the game theme?
