Well jailbars are gone and all out of spec parts replaced. Set is fully operational and working like a charm. Next is the touch up of paint and painting of stand.

Thanks for everyone's help. This thread is done.

That's awesome. Would like to see some good photos of the finished set though!

Would be cool to see the case and also a decent close up of the video.

I still have to do some research on the cabinet paint. I am told it is lacquer and I don't think I've ever done anything with that kind of paint. I've see other's paint theirs completely, base and all, but they go with a bright white. From what I understand, the paint color used was and off white (imperial something). If I can't figure out how to touch it up and it not looking like I did, I'll repaint the entire cabinet in the original color, just won't be able to get it in lacquer.

A couple here helped me get my camera setting for taking pictures of the screen, but I don't know how to get video from my phone that is in synch with the screen. Also, I am not sure why every picture I take seems to magnify the phosphor dot patter.
