Restoration & Repair of a Commodore 8032-SK (Gold Label)

Commodore 8032-SK (Gold Label)

The conditions of this Commodore 8032-SK (Gold Label) are really bad. The CBM 8032-SK is left for over 25 years in a dovecote.

The cleaning, repairing and restoration have taken a very long time, but the result is more than acceptable.

The comparison (before / after):

Defects:

  • The Commodore 8032-SK was completely dead (Black screen of death).
  • Little problems of CRT geometry.

Repair:

  • Replaced the CPU 6502.
  • Yoke calibration of the CRT
