So I got this in Februrary. It was pretty much dead. It looked great inside, but I could only get a small garbled picture. So I ordered some of Bob Roberts shotgun kits that pertained to my Asteroids, and threw them in. It was still the same, so I found a KLOV'er- mrbill08 who fixed Asteroids boards. In the meantime I fixed a missing corner, fixed the kick panel flaking, and cleaned it all up. So flashforward to today. I got the board in the mail, and installed the Braze HS kit I got a few weeks ago. Turned it on, and it fired right up. It works great, and I'm loving it- it's my first vector.
After everything is all said and done, I still have under $300 in it. Which isn't bad at all. And it should be ok for quite a while, especially after capping the AR, the monitor, and replacing the big blue.
Here's the progress of the project in a photo set here, for all you restoration nuts.

As I got it.
Spot Killer
Taken Apart
Back Together and Working
A Screen Closeup
Anyway this is just a distillation of the whole process, there are about 80 photos of the whole process in the photo set I linked above. Thanks a lot to:
Mrbill08 for getting me a woking board for a great price.
Dokert for showing me how to test my AR before I plugged my board in.
And a local KLOV'er Smoke for selling me the cab at the price he paid at an auction.
