Back in the day there wasn't a Mac 128k, SE, SE30 or classic I couldn't upgrade the hell out of using nothing more than an extended t15 torx. 
Couldn't count how many of these I upgraded ram, hard drives and even a color monitor swap on the SE30.

The SE30 was an upgrade beast. I have a tricked out SE30 that I restored just a few years ago. Recapped and washed the mainboard, repaired corroded traces to fix the audio, upgraded the ram from 1MB to 128MB, upgraded the 40MB hard drive to 8GB solid state, and replaced the ROM with one that is 32-bit clean so I can push the OS version higher, and has a bunch of custom ROM addon goodies too.
I put an ethernet card in the expansion slot as well, and managed to post to TigerDroppings from it before. Not bad for a 1989 model computer (though it took several minutes to load each page). It'd be cool to put a color monitor in it too but I'd have to take the network card out for the necessary graphics card, and the network card is way more functional than color.
Really want to get a clear case for it like this and make it a decorative piece but I missed the production run and it'll be like $500 to get my hands on it now.
