Unfortunately, the Mac LCIII that I would like to get working again most definitely has capacitor issues as you can visibly see leakage around several of them on the board. Unfortunately I don't know if there are any further issues yet. The other unit that I would like to get working is a IIgs. Right now when powered on it only shows thick horizontal black and white bars on the screen. I'm thinking it's most likely some of the onboard RAM that is the culprit (ROM3), but there may also be a sign of a leaked cap or two in that one as well.

Unfortunately I don't know if there are any further issues yet. Perhaps I should have said "for fixing" rather than "for re-capping". ;)
