Another case of bad coding. Not "broken" per se, better say it's fucked up at birth and no idea if this has ever run correctly anywhere.
1st part sets $0288 (high byte of screen mem address) to $c4 because it uses
$c400 as screen mem, but they forgot to reset it to $04 after pressing space.
From that moment every kind of fuckup happens, clear screen (jsr $e544) fills
$c400 instead of $0400, making also loaded part "RAMBO GROUP" fail to start.

on the fly patch, in vice monitor while part 1 runs,

break c3b6
x

then press space and

del
> 0288 04
x

Now you should be able to see part 2 without garbage on screen. Press space again to load 2nd file which starts the game. The exit is all on the right, in VIC-II settings disable Sprite-Background collisions, go all on the right until you see the "finish" box.
Part 4 will start.

The main file is easily patchable, I will put it on my site eventually.
