If you've got the spare time to clean the machine up and a few extra dollars for the spare parts then all power to you. I'm with the others on this, i hate to see pins get ratted for parts and torn apart. The board that has the batteries doesn't look good but possibly not as bad as it seems and the play field seems to have cleaned up so far. GO FOR IT!!, be interested to see how it all turns out, keep posting updates if you can !!
