This is my first post on the forum. I am renovating an old muffin the mule kiddie ride and I am struggling with a few things.
1. I am trying to get hold of a safety plate that should go below the coin mech similar to this.

2. I have no idea how to collect the coins. The coins just drop out of the bottom of the coin chute. What should be at the bottom similar to this ride.

3. I have a very old timer that I think I can get to work ok. Would this type of ride have had sound and if it would what sort of device would it have been and can I get one anywhere?
Thanks,
Mick
