Welcome to the forum, would be great to see pics of your Robotron. Also, watch some of the John's Arcade youtube videos made in the last few months as he went into detail replacing burnt round pins on the power supply of a Robotron (spoiler: in the end he gave up as it didn't fix his issues and he just installed a regular switching power supply and Williams adapter)

Whew, you have a lot of work ahead of you! If the goal is to make it play pacman or ms, i'd remove everything, clean it out thoroughly, repair wood as needed, repaint, wash all the electronics, get the monitor recapped/working. But then if the board isn't working (after testing/replacing fuses and power supply) i'd just get a 60-in-1 and install a JAMMA connector assuming the connector isn't JAMMA already. Its not worth the time to try to fix a bootleg when there's no info out there for it and a new 60-in-1 would be more reliable.

I'm from Canada too. I remember Space Panic, or maybe it was a bootleg. Played it on ColecoVision as well and I remember a friend of mine getting a laugh out of the fart-like noise when one of the aliens runs into you. Looks like it was in a Universal cabinet, so are you going to go with that shape? As for my fave cabinet design, probably the old Namco one for Pac-Man/Galaga.
