Nintendo Space Fever Cocktail Restoration.

So, i wrote some questions here during last summer, about a rare game i found on a swedish arcade forum. Well thanks to "Chuckie Egg" amongst other, i have now found almost all the parts i need to restore the game back to its former glory. One important part i am still missing is the 2 PCB GAME BOARD STACK. But i have choosen to start the resto anyway, maybe i instal some home made MAME board (raspberry PI powere) untill i can find the proper game hardware, but the cab will be restored anyway. Here is som pict of the game before restore, sorry for the bad quality.  ;)

The cab has been converted into some general MAME Cab, but not by the previous owner, he's not to blame. I have to have the cab repainted to the original brown, luckely for me, the insides have not been repainted, so it wont be that hard to match the original colour. The Joystick seen in the picts are going, i have 4 original Nntendo 2 way joys and housing, so don't worry.

Since im still looking for parts, the resto have grinded to a halt for now. Im going to repaint the cab when i gets warmer outside. I have decided to let a friend repaint it, he used to work doing custom airbrush on bikes etc. Maybe save some money there. Working on ideas for  raspberry pie to Jamma board i could use with an adapter to the original harnes and play the game via MAME (since i dont have the original monitor chassie, i can switch from inverted to normal colours, so Mame won't be a problem).

Checked the board this morning. Color bars on the screen, seems to be a common problem.
Web says check row 4&5 a couple soldered chips. No time right now for repair.
