    Stripped. Looks like most things can be replaced. It may or may not
    work, you notice the LogicLock on it. There is a chance it might not
    configure if the tamper detection was enabled. Wish the seller would
    hook up a monitor to it, throw in SIMMs at B1/A1, and power-up.

    No idea about HD sleds.

    Picked cleaner than a road side carcass.

    Not exactly. The system board has everything, but I'd like to know it
    powered up and displayed video.

    No RAM, no SCSI cables, no HD / slides, needs some bezels. It has an L2
    cache module, OP panel, OP panel cable, no floppy -BUT- has the floppy
    cable. It does have what looks to be a DX2-66

    There are two versions of the model 85 I have one of each.. they are a little harder to find than a model 95.

    Kinda like the model 65, they are a little harder to find.... a lot of the parts are the same but completely different mother boards
    than a model 80 or 60

    Where would you connect the video cable? There's no VGA jack that I can see in the pictures.

    Correct. OP would need a video card. Or a terminal for console...
