Apple //c power supply

Arrrggghhh...

Okay, so, for some time my Apple ][ collection has included a //c which I've
never booted because I didn't have the brick for it. I've seen them for
sale all over, but always for $25 to $40 (plus shipping). Since that's like
five times what I paid for the CPU, I've been pretty reluctant to go for it.

At the VCF swap meet, I picked up a //c with brick for $15, and the vendor
even threw in a non-working //c for parts (cool). I brought it all home,
fired up the two good //c's, and then turned to the non working one, which
promptly (auugh!) ate the brick.

I'd like to get in there and see if I can fix it, or just rebuild it (but
I'd still like to at least rebuild it inside the brick case). Does anyone
know if there is a way to get these things open without ruining them? I've
pushed and poked and prodded with no luck.

Thanks a lot!
