I purchased a Atari 5200 complete though no box at a garage sale today for $30 with a few games. It has some chips though and I was wondering if anyone knows a good way to repair them. Right now everything is just held together with tape. Anyway, here are the problems that I see so far.

1. The front cover is broken off (where the LED Light is)

2. There is a part in the front that has been chipped off.

I haven't attempted to play it yet, so I can only hope that it works like the person I purchased it from said it would.

This is the original 4 port.

Every once in a while I'll pick up some 5200s for parts. Right now I don't have any or I'd make you a heck of a deal on some case parts. ;)
