Yep, I bought a playfield that I'll be putting into my machine and taking the old one out. The old one has some wear, but it's not too bad and I think someone with a nice touch could probably restore it easily enough. I'm not sure if I'm going to hang onto it or sell it to recoup some cost yet. I'm going all out on the restore, which I hope to get started next weekend when I get back from Hawaii.
Play field swap? Do tell. Mine is a complete wreck...
