Well Paigeoliver i whipped out the multi meter lastnight and i fixed the sync problem on the board but i accdently hurt a cap and when i looked at it there was a resistor right next to it that was broken.
I had the cars playing when i got it home it just had a sync problem and now i have the sync fixed but now the cars are invisible and i'm guessing it's cause of the cap i hurt.
I'm at work right now and am getting the parts for it at lunch i still have 6 hours left

But everything works on the cabinet the scoreboard the pedal and wheel plus all the LED for the time clock.
I did notice that there was something missing as there's a hole with something inside it i am guessing thats the speed-o-meter.
Oh yeah i don't think the cabinet has had anything happened to it as the guy who has it said it was taken form a pub ages ago then just forgotten about in storage. And by looking at the differences my model looks different.
I can't find anything saying taito it does have a big logo of some japanese company tho named something differently. And the design is a bit different.
But i must say i love the cabinet it looks different when your actually there the pictures dont do its shape justice.

Oh about the rom thing. It might use roms but no cpu
The game goes like this.
You have a static background (its only really 2 white lines so it looks like a road) and you just dodge cars while your driving. It can't be any simpler u crash u start again.
