WTB:Thinkpad VGA TFT LCD and CD-ROM

I`m looking for a Thinkpad, preferably with a battery. Some I might want are the 365CD or 755CD but those are rare and expensive.
Any other ThinkPads with a 640x480 TFT LCD and a CD-ROM drive. I`m not looking for any mint condition model, just not from those IBM survival videos :) .
Using STN is like playing peek a boo with your cursor when you don`t too.

Got a 310ED I could perhaps be persuaded to part with. CD + VGA. It has a battery not charging. Kind of a rare model a cross between a 365 and a 380...I think the one I have has a Pentium 133 or 166. Also have a 365x P133 with a CD drive and a battery (dead) but screen may be 800 x 600 can't recall.

I don`t think the 310ED will work because the max size of a replacement VGA LCD is 10.4". Possibly changing the bottom of a 755C to a 755CD would work if that is possible. I also saw a 365ED and possibly swap the 640x480 DSTN display with a TFT.
