Salvaging a Tar-Stained Classic - Macintosh Classic Part 1 - iiiDIY

Now you can support the channel directly! Be one of the first iiiDIY Supporters here:   / iiidiy   This poor Mac Classic spent decades in a heavy smoker's apartment. Now it's time to try and restore it to perfect working condition so I can gift it to my friend! Aside from cleaning, recapping, and retro-brighting... It seems like this wonderful retro computer wasn't working and then stuck on a shelf, so I'm expect some "speed bumps" and troubleshooting along the way :) If you enjoyed this video, please subscribe to my channel so get more retro computing repair and restoration videos in your feed.
