Fully working, Red Baron project, $500. The good: it works! The monitor has ZERO burn-in and is beautiful. Everything works, the sound, board, monitor, guts. Nice solid stable vectors, flawless game play.

The bad: the cabinet is horrible, this game sat in a basement for 20 years and then the seller let it sit one night in his pick-up bed which happened to be the only night we had rain in the past few months. It's swollen around all the edges and the lower back panel is loose.

The cabinet is usable depending on how low your standards are, but honestly it's rough enough that it deserves a transplant or new cab. I'm just outside Kansas City in 66226 and have a garage stuffed full of stuff so if you make the road trip, you can enjoy lots of cheap parts and projects!
 
I spent the morning cleaning the cab, and it's not as bad as I thought; I don't want to oversell this. I'd much rather have someone show up and be pleasantly surprised than disappointed. I priced it at the board and monitor value together, everything else is a bonus.

It all works, but the EAROM isn't saving scores, otherwise it's 100%.

BUSTED! It is :-(

But at least it's working now!

Thanks for the bump Scott, and I'd also like to point out what a great guy Scott is too. A genuine passionate collector to the core.
