Looks like in nice condition under the dust, I'm not surprised, that the pcb is not working.
I have this modified pcb from Andy (P-Man) and it works fine:

Yeah, my boards had a 2708 to 2716 conversion done on it as well. The video output transistor seems to be blown at least but the game doesn't boot anyway.

Thanks for the offer, but the damage on the one I have is only minor, for now.

I've scanned in the control panel overlay should anyone need it:

Thanks :) If you could also measure where the hole for the lock should be, that would be useful also :)

To clarify, it's nothing to with Model Racing, the MR manual was just misplaced in The Invaders manual packet :)

Hello Paul,

I'm looking for a Model Racing Space Invaders Manual... have you scanned PDF of this "misplaced manual"?

I like the CPO!!  Thanks for the pics!!!
Dreaming of a Namco Galaxian waiting in a barn for me... somewhere! A Nintendo Sheriff would also make me happy. And a SNK Sasuke Vs Commanders or a SEGA Samurai... Argh too many; in fact!

The manual doesn't say what game it is for but here is the Model Racing manual anyway:
