I have a very nice tempest, it has been in my collection since 2006 never have had a problem since I fixed it up.
Repair work done
Saved from becoming a MAME Machine
Replaced Transistor(s) on monitor
- I didnt replace them all at the time, I should have but didnt have the money.
-Has a very slight wiggle to the pic, it has never been capped.
Monitor connector was bad
-so I replaced the wires in the connector that were bad, I didnt have AMP pins at the time so it was replaced with molex. See pic below
-original connector is there so if you have AMP pins it can be made original again.
Power cord replaced
-Inserted a quick disconnect for power cord made moving easier. See pic below
Marquees was bad and glass was broken.
-Cleaned up broken glass, cut new piece and ordered a repro overlay from arcadeshop.
Whats is original
Sideart is in great shape a few scratched here and there
Cpo is pretty nice one cig burn, and cracking at the bend
- The cpo is overall too nice to replace.
Buttons and spinner are all original
-Spinner works great never had a problem
Original board set never given me a problem
Original AR board never given me a problem
Unhacked wiring
Coin bucket with lid
Back door with Sheet
No cracks on front laminate.
Front Serial Number Sticker Is pretty Worn.
No Locks These are keyed for my arcade so I need to keep them.

That just about covers everything. enjoy the pics and video.

also open to offers, trades(full or partial).

I could use a few empty nintendo cabs(for my DK II projects) Namco Cabs(For my Arcades SD Projects) or Tatio cabs(Elevator action and ArcadeSD project) or a cocktail table(ArcadeSD project)

Also looking for a Tapper project as I purchased a Marquee, so I now need a cab. I also want to make a simpsons tapper with moe on the side serving Duff, and with simpson ROMs installed.
