A few days ago I posted pictures of a nasty Commodore 128 that I started restoring on Saturday.
Done:
- Case cleaned in dishwasher
- Case painted black
- New metallic 128 label affixed to case
- Keyboard cleaned
- Keycaps retrobrited
- Motherboard cleaned and tested (somehow it works despite all the mods and dirt)
To Do:
- Apply heatsinks to major ICs as this C128 did not come with an RF shield
- Apply new rubber feat
Sad discoveries:
- The F3 and F5 keys stick very badly
- The Enter key on the numb pad sticks very badly
- The clip inside the right hand side of the case was broken so it doesn't close quite flush on that side
Still it is looking a lot better than before and will match the black LCD monitor I intend to use it with.
