Commodore 1541 Impostor | Media Module Companion to C64x

The Commodore 64x or my "Impostor 64" is modern mini-ITX computer case made to resemble the Commodore 64. The problem with it is it does lack some connectivity and as a consequence, needs a multimedia companion device. Since I couldn't find anything suitable, I decided to take an empty Commodore 1541 case and turn it into the aesthetically perfect accessory.

Like my previous Commodore 64 Impostor, this too is a vanity build and likely not for everyone but if you have a love of the vintage, a spare Commodore 1541 case, this just may be the thing for you.
