Good to see another car nut! Most of my cars are as old or older than a BBQL.

Ask me about felt pads - I can cut them to size and they have proved excellent for mdv data recovery.

You know what, I'll start another off-topic post in the off-topic section and we can gush over our various motor vehicles.

@bwinkel67 yep , luckily it is only a minor scratch bit can't be polished away..............

both ql an 128 have a bust keyboard membrane .

and the ql is lacking its powersupply

i have cleaned and tested the 128 , and all memory tests look okay ( done with a "smart-card" addon board ) image from av-quick-solder solution cable works too.
so a new membrane will bring it back to life.

the ql however..................well i have started with a temporarily keyboard to get it fired up , and ......... it works too !!
this one however needs a lot more done to it as only a few modifications were done to the mainboard .
then i need to fix some microdrive cartridges to test the drives . flip on the 512k extension and the qdisk interface to test if all works.

so plenty of work for a rainy afternoon


oh , apparently one of the previous owners misplaced 2 screws .............
