Title: Bally 809
Post by: David Walz on May 14, 2023, 12:58:51 PM
Yesterday I was working on some locks on a house. I looked at a Bally 809, I couldn't take photos, however it's 100% complete, the hopper numbers reel numbers, match up with the cabinet numbers. It doesn't do anything, the grease is hard as a rock. Basically, I didn't want the customer think that I was drooling over the machine, she said it hasn't worked for a decade or more. I made a offer for the Bally 809 and see if she will sell it, I told her it was going to stay in my family if she sells it to me becoming a heirloom. I did find a example of what it looks like on the internet. It is 25¢, 7's are really nice and white, same cabinet style. It has a casino belly glass, and the slot machine numbers are still on the cabinet.

And if you must know I drilled and installed 6 deadbolts on doors so I was really exhausted when I looked at it, so don't expect to much from my old brain.  :Tongue_Out:

The machine is all complete, buying it, is no problem. The major problem is the WIFE, she is going to go postal if I have one more Bally slot machine.

I'm still unsure of the Slot Machine Reel Strips, which match the upper glass. It has a casino belly glass. I found a example of what it looks like. From what I recall its really close to my 809 configure, except that is 25¢ slot machine.

I pick it up on Sunday, and I will take extensive pictures, however Monday I need to work on a military job for a couple of days, so I'm probably going to do research while I'm on the road. As I said it's complete, everything is accounted for, glass is excellent, interior reels, hopper numbers match. The reels look exactly like my 809, the hopper is set up for the Multiplier like my 809.
