About to pull the trigger on this AMF Grand Prix. Owner wants $1,300 but I think it will go for less considering the bumpers no doubt need replacing. I realize it's a Gold Crown knock off but dayum what a good-looking table! Imagine this in tournament blue. I've read about the dowels vs. screws and other unconventional fittings but have concluded with the right set up, it could be knockout table. As I'm not above being seduced by a skirt, anyone want to tell me I'm an idiot for buying it? Bonus: Armand Beaupre of Snookers in Springfield, MA is going to set it up for me.
I'm being suckered by beauty. AMF Grand Prix. Someone talk me down.

Talk you down? Nah, just get the juke box too! Sweet vintage table imho
Holy cow! You're right. Package deal.
Me three!
Gotta recover it in green though.

Absolutely blue or green simonis or it isn’t really a pool table

Gold or tan was Willie's preference, but what did he know
The AMF you are considering is a very solid table- it could be set up properly to play very, very well as your home table. Also, it has the really cool 60s retro vibe that can't be beat IMO- be bold, stand out and go for it!
Nice table.
Reminds me of an Aircraft carrier shape from the 4 foot wide view.
Narrow at the bottom and wide and flat at the top.
