Help with IBM Thinkpad please

[elk-hunter10]

Ok, I talked hubby into buying an IMB Thinkpad at an auction today. Doesn't have a power cord, but he paid a tiny price, so we are looking at the next step. Where can we obtain a powercord for the thing to check it out? If it powers up, is it possible to obtain a user's manual or something for it? You can tell I'm not a laptop person, so don't know squat, but he will if you can answer! On the bottom, it says it is "Type 9547" That's as close as we can come to a model number. Any help would be appreciated! We might have to obtain other parts, too, battery, etc. Suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks, elk-hunter's wife!

You can find parts for your thinkpad at IBM But I wouldn't buy from there, too expensive. I would find the part you need and then look on ebay to get it cheap.

Thanks--does the "type" sound like it would be the model number?

Yes that is the model number Example = 2652 - cu7 (on the bottom).
