Great work!!!
Wow, nice is an understatement...this 'Tag looks showroom new!! Love the sloshing action...I've seen this on a few coin-ops before as well. Will the yardstick trick work with this lidswitch?
I didn't even realize ya'll had it running at the Convention! Then again, I made the mistake of not catching a lot of 'Tag action either...
Where will the 50 Hz '66 be going?

Amazing work, Greg, that machine looks like it was made yesterday.
These must have made a big hit when they came out. Press one button. Not even the need to pull out a knob and turn to the right spot. Remember the old phrase "pushbutton convenience"...? Or even "just press a button..." Since then we've gotten spoiled with our ubiquitous (and confusing) remote controls and touchscreen panels and all that. The definitive "ker-chunk!" of mechanical controls at least reminds you that there's *electricity* under the hood!

High-dee-high, high-dee-ho....
My grandmother's highlander filled this high - I don't know why some do and some don't! Reach up, give your self a slap and then bid on that AMP, Peter!
This machine had a funny thing wrong with the timer - the spray rinse should be 30 seconds long but this one was literally a spit-rinse (on, then immediately off again) so I had to change out the timer and now it works perfectly! No more water saving around here now!
And yes, Jon, I just happen to have had the timer IN STOCK!! Found it in my travels you know ;-)

Before and After
I saw that machine before in your driveway and now after (next the the later push-button Maytag!) As usual, your machines are fabulous. Thanks for the experience.

Greg,
It is just wonderful!
I had no idea from seeing it that it would need some work.
Now it is showroom new!
Thanks for the pictures!
