Hello list,
i got hands on several VT100 and VT105 parts. It SEEMS (at least to me)
to be one complete terminal without a power supply and some additional
parts. I took pictures of everything, which can be seen here:

(sorry for the self-signed certificate)
I already found this interesting page:
https://github.com/bbenchoff/VT100Adapter, so i guess i have everything
to try to repair the VT100.
But i never tried something like that, and i fear to break something as
soon i connect anything to power.
How should i start? I especially don't know how to clean the boards,
check the eproms and i'm afraid that the CRT is broken, since it has a
sticky fluid on it.
Bye,
Lukas Kaminski
