Well, okay, just one part.

I am after the internal hard drive mounting bracket that fits a Model D2 (80286). I'm not sure whether other Leading Edge models in similar chassis (like the Model D or Model D3) also use this bracket.

It fits to the right-hand side of the floppy disk drive bays, behind the power switch, and mounts a single half-height drive in a vertical orientation. It definitely screws to the bottom of the chassis, and might also screw into a flange that protrudes from the floppy drive bays.

If you've got one of these stashed away somewhere, or a Model D-something that's gone for parts and which has this bracket in it, I'd be delighted to hear from you.

I'll even take information confirming or denying specific other models of D which use this bracket (I don't believe the original Model D does, though one of the later revs may).

Thanks!
 
Good luck! You can setup automated alerts on eBay as well. I also sometimes see LE stuff pop up on Craigslist. You could use SearchTempest to trawl it.
