Title: Wanted: Amiga 1000 front left face place
Post by: RetroAmigaMan on July 05, 2014, 02:05:27 PM

Hi all

I recently damaged my beloved Amiga 1000 when I was moving some furniture around. :(  

The left front face plate (the piece which carries the Amiga signature) now needs to be replaced.

Can anyone help?  I don't need the Amiga badges (but they'd come in useful I'm sure), just the left plate.

I'm a collector of Amiga machines (along with a lot of British machines of the 1980s), so I'd doubly annoyed to have damaged my favourite computer, especially  as I've had my A1000 for 22 years.

I'm located in Perth, Western Australia - so of course I'd cover the cost of postage.

I'd swap an A600 for a spare Amiga A1000 case.

As a fellow all original Amiga 1000 owner I feel for you.  You're best bet is asking over at http://www.amibay.com

good luck

I'd swap an A600 for a spare Amiga A1000 case.

The front is actually one piece (apart from the memory expansion cover). I have a spare one around. It's a little tatty and the badges and C= logo have seen better days. See pic.

I could send it over to you - postage from Bahrain to Australia is all I ask.

That would be absolutely fantastic - thanks so much for your offer.  It's been years since I had my A1000 apart, so I forgot the front is one piece.  I'll PM you.
