WTB: ThinkPad T60 or T60p, 15" 4:3 screen, broken screens OK

Here's what I'm looking for, in order of importance:

Must haves:
ThinkPad T60 or T60p, 15.0" 4:3 chassis
Core Duo or Core 2 Duo CPU, any clock speed will do (if it's not a 2.33 GHz Core 2 Duo, I'll upgrade it later.)
Revision 03 motherboard (required for the Core 2 Duo, so if it has a C2D, it has revision 03. Otherwise, check with CPU-Z, but it's most likely revision 03 anyway, from what I've read)
Discrete graphics, I don't care which card, though
Vista Business, Ultimate, or XP Pro license

Should haves:
Battery (9-cell preferred, 6-cell acceptable)
AC adapter
ThinkPad 11a/b/g Wifi card. I don't believe the a/b/g/n card will work for me, and the Intel one won't.
Bluetooth
UltraBay Slim Super Multi-Burner (the one that can do dual layer DVDs)
At least 1 GiB or 2 GiB RAM in one module
Hard drive caddy (no HDD necessary)

Don't cares:
Screen resolution
Screen condition (it can be shattered into a million pieces, for all I care, as long as the inverter and cable are intact, I'm doing a QXGA swap)

I'm in Newark, OH (43055).

I have a 2007-93U However its been modified to a t7200 CPU core 2 duo (rev 3 board) Keys are like new. has 3gb ram, Vista 64 installed for testing purposes of new cpu only (used vista loader 3.0 to activate for time being. Has a larger 250mb hdd i believe in her now 5400rpm is a real beauty and runs great, runs a little hotter with t7200 but refinished the cpu and heat sink with new thermal compound and all is well. Has win xp pro COA and due to rules I will have to remove Vista 64 before sale. Make a reasonable offer and will try getting pics up soon as possible

If you're still looking for one I have a few that might fit your criteria I recently picked up at state surplus. They have nice screens though, one of them is even flexview. Maybe I could send you it screenless at a discount? They also have WinXP Pro licenses and 320GB HDs, but we could also cut the HD out. They are FireGL V5200 boards, so I'm probably going to ask more than the other guy, but they are very nice all the same.

If you haven't already found one, let me know. I have a more reputable name on ebay if you want to look me up there.
