I was able to get the hardware up and running and created disk images. But copying the data to the Street Rod folder (it’s not an install procedure like I said) and running the game gave the following result, not good.
Maybe I can re-create them (with different settings) because I got some errors (bad sectors, unknown format) when reading them.
Nonetheless I was able to extract a list of cars. I haven’t seen them yet, it’s just a list I came across in the HOT_DATA file.

I was able to replace the original HOT_DATA file so I could see the cars in the newspaper.
I saw in the last video post that you have 2 copies of disk 2 as i remember… maybe if you make a copy of one and another disk you can compare both with a hex editor… did you receive any error when you try to copy the files?
While creating the dumps I had the exact same idea: “why do I have 2 disks of both replacement disks, or… do I have 2 sets of replacement disks!”
I’m investigating it (and indeed comparing one with the other).
