Dropped the seller an e-mail to ask if he still had some parts from the original (like the monitor....gagagaga.....) but he just replied and explained the machine had been in a barn in Spain for many years and the PCB had become wet and was completely rusted away....CP and monitor were already removed too....

So, this does speak in his defense of course :)
