RARE Never before seen Commodore 64 ??????

"So does the Commodore 64C and 128. Ever seen one of them?"




Of course I have sen a C=64 and 128.  I grew up with them.

But They are NOT the same color as the Amiga.  They are both offwhite.

Take a closer look at the link.  It has the Khaki colored FKeys like the A600/A500.

Its slighly White/Latte in color.  :-)

Looks nice!   and as the owner o that site posted here, tha is definitely a different machine made for the German market, which explains why some of us never seen it.



@scuzzb494

it does not appear as if they simply just put a C=64c Keyboard in there..........otherwise the FKeys would be white too like the C=64c, but they are Kahki like the Aig FKeys.  The original C=64 had Dark Brown FKeys, and the C=64c had Offwhite FKeys like the rest of the keyboard.

this appears to be a completely new unit.

If you decide to trash it I'll take the V20 CPU.  I've been wanting one to upgrade an old PCjr.  (Maybe the floppies also if they are working, black, and half-height).

I don't think so.  (This is too beautiful a machine to be gutted or trashed, and the floppies are somewhat special gray pushbutton-ejection models.)

I do have access to some regular XT clones for gutting, but if you're in CA, you should be able to find 20 every day at the dump.

(Other good sources for V20s would be old laptops of many forms -- especially NEC-branded ones, obviously -- or Tandy 1000s, but if you find a 1000SX you'd be best served using that and junking/mini-ITXing the PCjr.)

As far as I know it is the C64 "Aldi", it was sold in late 80s or begining of the 90s on "aldi" discount shop with a package of games, not very rare but uncommon.

Now that is friggin strange...


I DREAMED about that C64 lol!!!!

Though I never laid my eyes on them, I dreamed of me running into one and buying it hehehehe....

Nice to know it wasnt a dream, but they really exist lol.

I've never seen one myself... But that is one damn good lookin C64!

I only ever owned a C64C and thought my friends brown C64 was ugly at the time.. however, NOW I think those brown models are damn sexy. I almost want one, except that emulation is so good these days.. complete with emulation of "fast loader" cartidges, etc.

So does the C64G have a white case or the original C64 breadbox tab case?
