So I went to the seller's house today, and checked out the machine.
The cabinet is in decent shape, with no water damage on the bottom. There is a lock bar on the front, so looks like a bit of bondo is going to be required.
Inside the game, its a complete mess. There is a lot of spider webs and dead bugs, and the wire harness is going to have to be replaced. Luckily, though, the original power brick is in there, and it looks as though the original art is salvageable.
I asked if he would sell it for $50, and he agreed.
Looks as the problem is either the Power supply, or the game board. (There is a switcher in the game right now)
He also had a Galaxian converted into a Gallag, but he knew how to fix the Vertical Hold problem it was having, and was asking $200 for it.
I am going to pick it up tomorrow, as I didn't have enough time to get it, bring it home, etc.
What boards will I need to run the game? Is it just the AR-II board and the Main PCB, or is there some other boards that I am missing?
Thanks.
And Gozer, I sent you a PM.
