Contd.:
Some yellowing, no cracks or plastic damage. Some scratches on metal top.
Have orig. psu if you want.
Will have OS9 on it with the necessary drivers and software for the CD/G3/GPU. I recommend backing it up, some of that was hard to find.
FDD is unreliable, may need head cleaning. Ejects without issue.
Dual Display works.
Fan is Arctic F8, very quiet. PSU mounted upside down, or fan blocked.

OK folks I have a mighty need:

I'm looking for a PowerBook Pismo G3 400mhz in good shape.

I used to have one, it was in perfect shape, battery was still good for 8 hours of use. Was sold without my knowing and im upset.

I have a Powercomputing PowerCenter Pro tower for trade:
XLR8 320mhz G3, modern ATX psu, Radeon 7000 32mb, Adaptec SCSI card, 10krpm 18.5gb server HDD (its fast!), 256mb FPM RAM, Battery replaced with AA holder, New fans.

@ElectricVibes I got it working and youll never guess what it was.....

Outdated version of the software... Installed Daystar's version 2.6.5 and found a serial to register it and now everything is working just fine. Caches all show up no problem.

its pretty snappy now too, overclocked quite a bit. 233 to 320mhz.
