Hi,
Like I've mentioned in some other threads, I recently bought a 3000, it boots fine and runs perfectly but...
1) The rear of the case and some of the connectors have some surface rust.
2) The battery was removed at some stage but way too late, the mobo has suffered quite a lot of damage.
3) The drives all show some surface rust.
4) The LED pcb broke in transit.
5) The two floppy eject buttons are hanging on for dear life.
( I guess I've been spoilt, the 2nd hand 500 and 2000 I bought were both kept in pristine condition, they both look like they just rolled off the factory floor and my 1200 is still as good as when bought new )
I want to restore this Amiga to it's former glory but I would really appreciate some advice:
What is the best way to tackle the surface rust and is there something I can coat with to prevent further rust?
Does anyone want to sell a spare 3000 mobo or know where there may be one for sale?
Can you recommend a good external SCSI CD Drive and what drivers/software will I need ? ( Running WB 3.1)
Thanks in advance,
Marc
