Closed A2630, A2232, and 2500UX Front Panel

[Ioncannon]

I am slowly converting my Amiga 2000 to a A2500UX. I started with a beat up bone stock Amiga, and have since added a second FDD, new PSU (old one was a racket), a A2091, a 8mb A2058, newer kickstart, and fixed up the case (it was warped so the front brezel would not match up) by grabbing a few parts from a dead A2500). Currently it's a great looking A2000HD!

Anyway, I am looking for a A2630 accelerator, the A2232 serial card, and a 2500UX front panel/brezel. Depending on the total price, I may only buy 1 or 2 parts, but if the price is in my range, I may get all 3.

Hmm I think I have an even new and boxed/sealed A2232 IIRC.

Will let you know then

Good luck on the front panel. I have only ever seen 2 , one I own and one on the big book of amiga hardware.
I know several people that have been looking for one for ages, they never turn up, not even on the other bay. (nor complete machines)

Is LTAC or Almaniac that is selling custom labels on his site? I think I saw those labels in the past few days...

@Ioncannon: You could allways attempt to create one of your own, or ask from an owner to take a good picture of the label. My belief is that the plastics are identical, so you can keep your actual A2000 fascia, and replace just the label. Find a good photo shop that can print it in good quality for you, and off you go! Take for example a label i did for my A2000PPC project: http://www.amigahellas.gr/uploads/photos/675.jpg
That is not the best i could do, it's just a scan of my old label editted for the ppc mark. However, you could be persuaded by the A3000T replica panel i had help in making from folks in this forum!

Good luck whatever you do!

OK, forgive me for going OT, but how on Earth have you managed to shoehorn a PPC into an A2000?!

@AndyLandy: Lol, perhaps the tag is a bit confusing, but nevertheless, there's still a form of PPC running in that there box.

Mind you, there actually is a chap around who has managed to fit a real PPC board in his accelerated A2000. Can't recall where i saw it, but i think you'll find vids over at youtube!

Was on Amiga.org.

The guy managed to buy one of the three! prototype PPC boards that fits into the Blizzard/CyberStorm 2060 (and on any Phase5/DCE) 060 acccelerator.

Then he squeeze a SCSI controller, 3 or 5 SCSI disks using a SCSI raid controller, removed the ISA slots, etc.

A dream machine!:drool:

No problem, interesting video. So the 2500UX front panel is that rare eh? Oh well, problem I have with labels is I can never put the straight . Anyway does anyone have a A2630 for sale? Going to pm Jon about that A2232.
