Got together today with enjoyvelvet and we traded my Space Invaders Deluxe for his non working Asteroids Deluxe. He threw in some cash also to balance the deal.

I dug into the reason it wasn't working and it was very simple repair. First it wasn't getting any power to the board, so I checked out the AR board and found a shorted diode which also took out the 2N3055 transistor. Replace those parts and bang, game plays blind. Now onto the monitor. Pulled the deflection board out and resoldered all the connections, and then bang, again, game working........... I am going to go over the monitor later and cap it. But its a great machine, all there. Look like its never been pulled apart.

This is my 4th vector game I got working.....I love these games...

It looks to be in pretty good shape, very nice pickup! I like the other bezel angle/style better but no doubt I would have gone after that. Always gotta love when you can get it working relatively easily!!
 
Both my Asteroids Deluxe games work, and now I have one each, Factory Bezel, and modded angle bezel. I am most likely to going to put the angled bezel one up for sale when I finish a few more things to it.
