Looking for a PowerComputing 180E...

This is a repost from a different forum category:

Greetings forum, I am looking to purchase a PowerComputing PowerTower 180E. I recently determined that this was the exact model of my first computer and I would love to add it to my growing collection of older mac computers. The exact model is here: https://everymac.com/systems/powercc/powertower/powertower180e.html

I have looked online but as this is a clone computer, I am having a hard time finding a seller or any place that sells it. Ebay shows some results for other models, which is promising, but I was wondering if anyone on here knows of any other places to check.

Secondly, If I am able to, I would like to upgrade it so if anyone knows places to get parts for that as well, that would be greatly appreciated.

I was running macOS 8.6 and had 8GB of total storage. Beyond that however, I do not know the other specs of my machine as I believe it was upgraded after purchase.
