I had (well, sorta still have) a IIci and a IIcx I picked up some years back
at a thrift store cheap. Unfortunately that was before I learned of the
dangers of leaking batteries...you can probably guess where this is
leading...not much left of them. More recently I got a IIcx motherboard

You might find MacRelix interesting. It doesn't have a GCC port
I remember there was a disk image of A/UX 3.1 floating around for use with
Shoebill (an emulator designed for running A/UX).
Found it:

Hi,
Does anyone here have an installed image of A/UX 3.0? A/UX 2.0?
I was stupid enough to sell the copies I got while I was at Apple.
A/UX 3.0 was really cool... would have used it more seriously but I bailed
to the NeXT camp, which had much cooler OS software than anyone, at the
time.
Hi. Yep am planning on moving to tantalum in my IIci.
I understood your reply completely... so thank you!
When I worked at Ample Computerz I bought a Quadra 900 among other
machines... they were cheap for employeez.
Turned out they were cheap all around- the case was always falling apart
and
I have a Q700 I picked up at a recycling center and tried a while back
to get working, but didn't have any luck, but also didn't spend much
time on it, could be a bad power supply. At any rate, my recollection
is that on the one I had at least, the capacitors on the motherboard
were all
Curious... do you know if the capacitors on the Quadra 700 mamaboard do
better than the ones in the IIci and such? Capacitors from the pre-china
days tend to have very long lifespans but Apple got an early start on
shipping "lesser componentry" on their boards.

That's no problem the Quadra is safe here for when ever you can collect it.
As for the G3 I made the mistake in getting rid of my original one as it
only needed another CD drive.
The replacement has a different motherboard, with a wide SCSI connection so
