Stupid amiga 1000 questions...

[haywirepc]

A friend of mine said he has an old amiga 1000 in his attic that I can have, once he digs it out. He's not sure he has the disks for it but is sure that it worked last time he tried it.
 
Stupid question time, I had an amiga 1000 years ago, it was actually my first before amiga 500 came next, but that was then and this is now.
 
Where can I get kickstart and workbench disks for this computer, and can amiga 1000 only run workbench 1.3, or is 3.x at all possible?

Does anyone know if that amiga 500/2000 ide hard drive mod from finland
will work on the amiga 1000?
 
Will the ecs scandoubler from amigakit work with an amiga 1000?  

Thanks for your thoughts...

If anyone knows where I can get one of those rom kits, please do let me know...

Well first I'll see if my friend digs this out before I go hunting too much. For now I was just curious about the expansion of upgrade possibilities because I like the 1000 case and external keyboard better than my 500.
 
It would be a cool project if I could have a really pimped out 1000 with scandoubler, 3.1 roms and internal ide hard drive, but my $$$ may be better spent on a 1200.
 
Still fun to see what you can do with an original amiga.
