I'm pretty excited to say that I've picked up three EM games. One being a Midway Gangbusters! Unfortunately, it's missing the motor speed board, part # 563-930.

I have a repo manual on the way. Would anyone be able to recommend a source for this board or possibly someone who could build it?

Thanks, Frank

Check with John Robertson at John's Jukes as he has gun game parts, maybe he has a good used one.

Here's a pic of the board and schematics from my game .
if you need more pics of the circuit board tracks , i can take some for you ,
Note! I have replaced the caps on this board and also written on it some of the component values.

Ralph,
Those pictures are great! I could really use picture of the backside showing the traces.
Thank you very much

I have some of the original scenery for Gangbisters. If you are looking for anything, let me know. I have a motor speed control board from a different Midway gun game. Im not sure if they are the same.

Hope these can help , If you need more just ask .
I have seen some Midway motor speed boards on EBay recently, not the exact game . But you could use the parts to help make a Gangbusters board .
If you get stuck , i have a Duck Hunt motor speed baord , amp , moose control board lol, etc and i could help out with some parts .
Btw
I have found a LDR that works for the Gangbuster game , 170ohm light / 1.3Mohm dark
part no 466-1996 RS Components.

I replaced 5 today on my game that were not working and bingo! working again like they should.
Good luck with the board .
Board size is 135mm wide 186 high (including the egde connector)

Quoted from kovalski3:

Most of the parts would be the same if from that early electronics era , The spare Duck Hunt boards i have use mostly the same parts on them .
Keep us posted on how you go with the board
