Title: Need parts
Post by: ratcues on March 06, 2013, 10:20:25 AM

I have had this table for about 17 years now and finally tracked down who made it and when.  Now, I'd like to find parts to restore it.  A little history about half way down this linked page...

Here is a pic from my facebook page.  I have many more, if needed but I didn't see how to upload on this forum.

Any help would be appreciated.

the men look like Dynamo ones if you need to get more.

I work for Mueller Rec Products (www.muellers.com) and we do sell the old style men.  I'm looking for parts like the coin-op, literature, anything pertaining to this table.  In all of my searching, I have only found one other pic of a table like this.  In the page I referenced in my first post, it says this Bud table became pretty popular so I would think someone has one or knows more than what I have already found.

American table made tables with the Budweiser logo in preparation for a large tournament in St Louis about 1975 or 76.  The logo in the middle of the playfield should tell you.   However, to me, it resembles a late 70's Dynamo cabinet with a slide out playfield.  The men look like 80's or later Dynamo men, but not the originals for this table.  The score markers and handles are not original either, assuming it is a Dynamo or American.

The logo is 1976 in the center.  You are correct with the hardware.  Rods, handles, men, scorers, and bushings are all aftermarket.  I still have the original men and some of the bushings.  The playing does slide out but the original surface as well as corner ramps were missing when I bought it.  I just put in some textured Plexiglas and set it up with three goalies.  It served its purpose at the time.  Now, I guess I'd like to restore it or sell it to.someome that take care of it.
