I got a non-working Pac-Man in poor condition a few months ago. I've been working on it and thought it might make for a decent thread. Hopefully, the info I put in here will be useful to someone else fixing an old Pac-Man or something similar.
This game was everywhere when I was a kid. Even these days, everybody knows about Pac-Man. Still, It had been awhile since I had seen an original cabinet before I got this one.

It was completely submerged by creek floodwater while in basement storage. Mud on everything. Bad mildew smell. A sad sight.
On the other hand, it appeared to be original and complete. This would look great alongside my Super Pac-Man if I could get it working.
I wanted to preserve/fix everything I could on this project. Even the beat up side art if possible. I see a fair number of Pac-Man reproductions running 60 in 1 boards that get the details of the original design wrong. Hoping to keep this one authentic.
