In need if a working 19V1001 chassis or repair service

My Space Invaders monitor has developed a vertical collapse problem. I've tried replacing several transistors already to no avail. Both Buffett and Chad are booked until next year, and Matt doesn't have a tube for testing. I'd like to get this game going again by Christmas if possible. Anyone else want to take this on? Or if you have an extra working chassis I'm interested as well.

Thanks in advance.
 
I have a V1003 chassie that is complete and functional but when I purchased this, it was missing the flyback elbow that connects the suction cup to the flyback (pictures attached)
Let me know if your interested.

Seems to me there is a cap that is known to do this. Might be a resistor. I just know this is a common issue. Google may help you. Did you post in the Monitor Repair forum?
 
I did not post but I researched, mostly on this forum. Many threads pointed to a bad Q217. I replaced that and several others to no avail. Others that have had a similar problem that was not resolved by replacing Q217 never did post after that if a cure was eventually found.

I've also seen threads where others have replaced the monitor entirely with a color monitor or even a 19" TV set. I do have spares of both but want to try to keep it original first. I could put my spare Vision Pro in there if it would work, but that would leave me without a spare for other games (unless I found a good G07 chassis for a spare tube I have). I only have one 19" TV but would have to manually turn it on and put it in AV mode every time I turned the game on. The image also seemed darker and stretched too big with it (scoreboard was cut off).
