For Sale/Trade - Donkey Kong in Central NJ - Needs some work
Hi Guys,
I bought a Donkey Kong about 6 months ago that needed some work. I replaced the joystick that was in there with an original DK stick and it looks like all of the original leaf switches are in there. One side has a pretty decent artwork, the other is missing. The Back door is there and everything but it's unlocked (I don't have the key so just need to be careful with it). Machine turns on and plays but the monitor appears to be very very dark, I was told by a few members and technicians that the monitor needs a cap kit. I bought the machine knowing that I couldn't keep it in my apartment in the City, so its being stored at my parents house in Monmouth Beach NJ. I haven't really had the time to attempt to work on it yet and have realized i'm really only good at cosmetic stuff like replacing side art and graphics - Cap kits are not my skill at all. I'd rather sell it to a member here on KLOV so that it actually gets restored correctly (instead of ending up as a 60:1 project). I'll be able to get some pictures of it soon, I just wanted to see if it had any interest in the meantime. Asking $250.
thanks
Jason
