Toshiba RT-8035-silver.jpg

Just won bid on this wee beastie - a replica of the one our grams gave us back in the mid-90s. One of the uncles bought it for her and it spent most of its life in the dining room. When gramps passed away, she moved in with our family. She didn't need the li'l Toshie for anything so it was gifted to us. For several years we've had the black version of this and this is the first silver one (like hers) that we've found at a reasonable price. Its belts are listed as duff and we may just transfer the case to our current working box to save ourselves trouble.

Nice Tosh! :)
What we didn't see from the auction pics (or in the description) was that it was missing its handle. We had a spare from a busticated Toshiba we'd bought for parts - though it looks like they made the handle plastic grey for the silver box. No matter. We have this and the black one in working shape - both have fresh new belts - ready to join the collection.
