mac pro 2006

So I have a Mac Pro 1,1 I got from someone awhile back for $30, as I thought it might be fun to fix. According to the guy it was working but I've never gotten it to boot. I figured I'd see if I missed any crucial steps before junking it? It powers up, fans spin, HDD will spin up, GPU fan...

I've found others on Amazon & eBay, but my Mac Pro is that little bit too big for all of them, usually by 5 cm. The other thing is that the finished build is probably going to be closer to 25 kg, more than...
