Search for TP 701c Dock Adapter Kit

#1 Post by Dosler » Tue Mar 18, 2025 1:17 pm

Hello,

i managed to restore my beloved Thinkpad 701c. I also have the Dock II 3546-001 and want to connect each other. I try to find the Adapter Kit for some Years now, but there seems to be no chance in germany.
Is anyone here who has the right kit and is willing to sell/ship it?

greetings from germany

Here are some pics from the adapter 04H6196, which i am searching.

Hi - I've got one, which is on the list to try out with one of my 701c machines and a 3546, but I might be up for selling it when I'm done. Not sure yet, but as these are absolutely rare as anything, best keep my details....

Hello and thank you for your reply.
I would be happy if we could do business somehow. So if you ever want to sell, please keep me in mind. :bow:

Send me a picture of exactly what you are looking for. I might have it. I acquired quite a bit of thinkpads and parts etc. the forum owner messaged me on ebay 😀

I just joined, hence the two posts. The owner of the forum messaged me on ebay because of my listings and invited me here to join. He saw that i have a 701c listed and made some very nice comments about the condition of it. I own a company in MA that cleanups up fire damages, water damages and mold. Every once in a awhile we get a call to do a clean out job from someone after they passed and sort of kept everything. During the job i came across tons of ibm thinkpads and tons of computer parts. I have been slowly listing them on ebay instead of them going to a landfill. Im going to see if i can locate this part as i still have half the house to go through. Jmanz28 is my ebay name and the business i own is PuroClean in MA. If you want to make sure im not a scammer.

@Thinkpadluck:
you can PM now.

PS: but why is your website "403 Forbidden" for access from outside USA?
Tried both Firefox and Chrome on W10 and not using a VPN.

Thanks for the pm access, as far as the website i couldn’t tell you. The franchise does all that stuff. They arent worldwide. You should be able to go to puroclean.com and punch in zipcode 01453. I know plenty about computers but websites and domains is nothing for me to try and figure out 🤣

I seriously doubt anyone ever thought a bad condition 701c listed on ebay for $1300 was ever going into landfill.

Hoarder people passed away. Family members are out of state and dont want to be bothered with it. So everything in the house was destined for a landfill. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I've got one in it's original box but installed into the Dock II with a 701c attached. Do you want to buy the whole thing? I covered the installation here: https://ret.rocks/index.php/700-series/701c
