A Messed Up Commodore 64 - How I Restore a C64

This Commodore 64 has some serious issues. Today we'll look at a messed up machine and I will cover the typical steps I take when I restore a machine.

We love to restore and explore vintage technology and are also working on completing an assembly language RPG that I started making on the C64 in 1984. At RavenWolf Retro Tech we restore and explore vintage technology from Back in the Day! Now that we are moved into the new shop, the frequency of videos is increasing. I’ll keep putting out videos as I can, but I promise to focus on higher quality videos that don’t waste your time over frequent, low effort projects.
