The board looks to be 4-layer (front&back traces

in a 16MHz 68k system. Would it be possible to fab it using a
barely-etched dual sided board for power/ground planes and running
point-to-point wires for the signals, or is this asking for trouble as far
as timing issues go?
Golly, at that bus speed, I'd think that even wirewrapped terminator boards
would do the job. Your method would probably be fine--and may even be
superior to PCB (reduced crosstalk if you keep the wires short).
