Commodore A2000 Restored/Upgraded huge w/68030, 68882, MMU, SCSI SD Boot, MORE!. (

)
PLEASE watch the attached video so you can see a full live showing of this machine, what I did, upgrade and more (the video explains the temporary tin foil shield)!
Part #1:

Part #2: (camera battery died)
https://youtu.be/rkY-GYdCOmI
Unit has been restored and repaired completely and is fully functional. Fully tested and repaired so that external ports all function properly. Upgraded the system to a 1 MEG ECS Agnus chip. Upgraded the Kickstart to 3.2. Replaced/repaired the battery backup clock to a 2032 coin cell battery. (
NOTE
: Sale is AS IS so please read carefully and watch the included video showing the unit fully and in operation)
NOTE:
The current system is still set to PAL and has a 220volt P/S HOWEVER you can easily change this to NTSC either using the 3.2 OS option or a simple hardware fix to make it permanent. I decided to leave that option to whomever buys the unit.
Likewise with the power supply, I am in the USA so I had to use a step up transformer to allow the 220 power supply to work on our 120 volt power. They are inexpensive, around $40 to get. So your option is to do what I did or to even replaced the power supply with a standard USA version and save the current 220 volt as a backup. Again I chose to leave that figuring it would let whomever buys it make their own decision.
** Note the linked Video below
as I show the entire system piece by piece AND fully operational so you can see exactly what you get.
I have upgraded the machine to include the following, all fully tested and using the latest drivers:
GVP 68030/68882/MMU and INCLUDES the daughterboard with an additional 4 MEG ram!
I have also attached a mini flow cooling fan to the unit to help with the temps these cards produce!
Motherboard REV 6
A2052 - 2 Meg Ram card
GVP Series Impact II card connected to a SD2SCSI card that uses a 4 GB SD card to boot the system lightning fast.
Included on the SD card is 3.2 installed fully. ALL drivers for the GVP cards (68030 and Impact II), a some utilities including Workbench Management System v3.0 (MY own personal designed and released best seller from back in the day) as well as DOPUS and ADF file utilities.
Kickstart and Workbench 3.2 Installed (Original CD ROM included)
1 MEG - ECS AGNUS upgrade
New replaced battery backed up clock w/2032 flat cell battery
Fully working A2000 original keyboard and original tank style A2000 mouse, cleaned and tested!
All current drivers included on SD card boot drive
Additional useful utilities and programs also installed on SD card boot drive
Replaced DF0: Original floppy drive with same. Tested for read and write
Added Gotek USB drive as DF1:. Tested fully
Available empty 5 1/4" drive bay for expansion
NOTE: Case has a couple small glue spots on the front. I cleaned things but did not want to attempt to remove the glue as I was afraid it would damage the case doing so. You can see them in the front shot. The rest of the case is in good shape.
I have also created a short video at the included link where I show you all the updates, all the included hardware and the specifics of the system you are getting. You can see it fully running and active as I walk through everything completely.
