All pinball machines that I know of have the cabinets spray painted and the artwork airbrushed. $2,000 can get you something half decent from the early 90's -- if you look hard enough. Stay clear of Street Fighter II, terrible machine, possibly one of the worst Gottliebs around, hard-to-sell even at $1,500. High Speed is an excellent machine on the cheap, in fact most William's pinballs are brilliant. $1,000 might get you a mid to late 80's one that's a bit rough around the edges.

Best of luck with the project!
