Hi guys,
I recently picked up a Model II and a full three disk expansion drive on eBay and have started the restoration process. I'm calling this one the Ship of Theseus Model II as when it arrived someone had already cannibalized all of the IC's and the ROMs... By the time I'm done, I expect I'll have replace a lot of parts on the thing... I've taken it apart down to its base parts and am cleaning and replacing everything that is past saving. A mouse got into the case as some point which corroded the interior base plate and the terminal block, but did not damage the boards. I've sandblasted and painted all of the frame parts and ordered brand new screws from McMaster Carr for all of the fasteners, but the one thing that has me vexed is a replacement for the terminal block. Does anyone know of a good replacement part that can be ordered online?
Thanks!
