WTB: PowerMac G4 (400 MHz) parts

I recently picked up a G4 tower at a local computer salvage house for $10. No drives (except a Zip100), no RAM, no cards. I've narrowed it down to the Yikes! series (no AirPort slot).

I've got drives, RAM and PCI cards to throw in this baby, but I don't have:

• an AGP graphics card to try, or
• bezels for the CD-ROM and Zip100 drives.

Anybody got a scrapped Yikes or Sawtooth I could buy some parts from? Not looking to spend a lot, but I'll try to be fair.

Confused

If the machine does not have an airport slot, then it doesn't have agp. A regular pci video card is all that you will need. The yikes is simply a blue and white g3 with a g4 chip, adb removed, and a nicer looking case.

Update: video card found

Found a compatible video card (for PCI slot) on eBay. Anybody got the front bezels for CD-ROM and Zip100?
