See the clear vinyl bubbled up? I'm not sure if that was part of the shipping that you peel off, or a protective layer meant to be a permanent part of the system.

Functional front panel and z80 board. Pictured running the port FF test program testing input and output to port 0xFF. Note the corresponding programmed output LEDs to the Address-Programmed Input
Serial No. MFD-1107
See the clear vinyl bubbled up? I'm not sure if that was part of the shipping that you peel off, or a protective layer meant to be a permanent part of the system. Needs attention RSN.
I have a Intersystems Model 950 set of disk drives working too. I've got a bit of RTFM to do first before trying to boot any media I may have.
I removed all the boards and the front panel (FP) board before testing the power supply. It was rock solid.

The chassis has threaded attached standoffs. Quite a lot easier to reassemble this FP than the Imsai FPs. Rock solid power supply voltage tested with my EEVBlog meter.
