M82 restoration

Okay, I took a gamble, and bought a M82 that had been sitting in a barn sight unseen for 1150. The only thing I knew was that the power supply blew. So, I got it, and it was dirty as fuck, and it looked like someone had tried to make some bad repairs. So, this was my first restoration. I should have picked something cheaper, but whatever--balls to the wall. No circuits were blown, so I cleaned it up, and then luck struck as I found an original power supply on ebay. I snatched that sucker up. I have 2 things left to do. 1st the power supply in it when I got it was aftermarket, and they cut the wires to add on a connector that would work with it. The original had molex 4 pin adapters. So, I removed the connectors. Here's the problem, and you may laugh, but I can't figure out what kind of wire crimper to use to put the metal connectors onto the wires so I can put them into the molex 4 pin adapters. (totally noob repair status) 2nd is that I need to learn how to use a multimeter to fix the timer dial on the back. That is the only piece that is not an original component. Once step 1 is complete, I can turn it on, and see if I have a working M82, or a very expensive paperweight. Pics below!

 

M82s are that expensive?! Wow, I had no idea. I thought they would be closer to the price of the FamicomBox/FamicomStation, which is like $800 maximum.

 

I've seen them sell for over $2000.00 on Ebay.
