Finished the rehab on the Comet I picked up a couple months back, it now looks right at home.

Quoted from jaytrem:

Looks great! How much work did you have to put into it?

Quite a bit, but a lot of it was just busy work:
• power board repair and a couple transistors on a strobe circuit.
• restored the transformer board
• fix some backbox sag
• considerable paint work on backbox
• rubbers, flippers, legs, glass, target decals, bulbs, etc., etc., and a few mechanical fixes where needed. Standard fair as the game had sat for almost a decade in a storage container.

Just needed some love and I wanted to rehab it. Far from a true “restore”, but back to 100% playing and looking pretty good.

Forgot about the speech board... most speech was missing (except explosion) but replacing the two small IC’s and resocketing the ROMs fixed it. So many little things I forget half of them.
