How's it going bad? Most monitor failures can be fixed with a cap kit, at which point you're back to like-new picture quality for many years. Obviously you'd need to find someone experienced with electronics to install it, but it would help preserve what is, in my opinion, one of the best benefits of having an arcade cabinet.
Alternatively, if you've got your mind set on LCD, at least try and sell or give away the monitor to someone who can restore it.
