Parting Out 4D/340 VGXT

I have come to the realization that the chassis and power supply for my 4D/340 VGXT are just too far gone to be repaired, so I am parting out the boards. I have no idea what the going rate for any of these are, so just PM me offers and we'll work something out. I will ship anywhere in the world as long as you are willing to pay for it. Because I cannot power up these boards, I CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT ANYTHING WORKS, but it definitely all did the last time the system was powered on (2012). The one exception is that I could never get the ethernet on the IO3 board to work, which is why I have the extra VME ethernet board.

Here's the list of what I have:

IO3 030-0210-004 Rev A
IP7 030-0135-012 Rev A
IP7 030-0135-012 Rev A
MC2 030-0117-034 Rev B (8x8MB)
GM3 030-0213-004 Rev A
GE6 030-0153-004 Rev C
RM3 030-0220-001 Rev A
DG1 030-0158-004 Rev G
013-0204-002 CMC E/NET Rev D
Plus a sled with an SGI-branded Seagate ST41200N. The stickers say "FGI 3.3.2" and "IP12 ALPHA 15" but sadly the drive was wiped when I got it.

Alternately, I would be willing to trade some/all of this for a working R4K Indigo.
Where are you located? If shipping would not be astronomical, I would be interested (I'm in Pennsylvania). I do have a couple of 4k indigos and I can check specs for you or we can do a cash deal.
How bad is the chassi/skins?

I'm in NE Ohio outside of Cleveland. I don't think shipping for several boards would be astronomical, especially not over that short distance. In the case of a trade (which I think at this point would probably be my preference), I was thinking that I would cover shipping on my end and you would cover it on yours.

The skins are a little banged up, and it's missing the skirt on one side plus the entire back piece. The chassis is mostly OK but there are a few spots with surface rust, mostly by air intakes.
I'm through Cleveland a lot. I was actually there this Friday. I'd be glad to do the trade - I have two Indigos and I can bring both for you to pick. The configuration is a little different on both. I don't have hard drives but I have the sleds (company required that the drives be destroyed). Let me know and we can work out details. I sent you a PM today as well.
