Well after a very successful day of selling 2 machines (my Superman turned Multicade and my Golden Tee Classic), I bring yet another DK into the woodwork. This time, a CT. It defines the term "cap this monitor" and random parts are falling off, but I think it will be a rewarding project.

Probably the most difficult cocktail I've ever played was a DK cocktail. The joysticks angle makes it difficult to play. Just my experience.

Same here. Being a long legged type doesn't help when playing a cocktail table. I'm fine when it comes to Midway tables like my Super Pac but I don't think I could play a DK CT very well. I remember playing one at a burger place when i was a kid but it might be hard now.
 
I did a little work on it tonight. Capped the monitor, new brightness pot, new jump button, and cleaned her up real good. It now plays 100%, but has some sort of graphical glitch (see closeups).

Yea, I reseated and cleaned every ROM on those boards and replaced the Z80A to no avail. Its the 4-board type (TKG3), so its one of the ROMs on the CLK board (4M, 4N, 4R or 4S). Would you have the resources to possibly burn me some new ones? (With monetary or arcade part compensation, of course :) )
 
I can burn everything on there but the proms right now. Proms will require me to actually hook up the old Data i/o, which just hasn't happened yet. Did you look at the pics on that site? It has to be one of those that I listed. Reseating won't help a bad rom. I don't have class on Friday, so I might be able to stop by after work. Do you have any extra 2716s in case the corrupt rom is unburnable?

Right, but the ones you listed are for the 2-board type, not the 4-board type. He has a chart up above that shows the equivalent between the two boardsets (If I read it correctly). Anyways, I have a bunch of 2716s, so if you can help me out, shoot me a text when you get a chance.
