[ForSale-Swap] 5111 storage Oscilloscope

I have just acquired a Tektronix 5111 storage osc.

It seems to be usable, in that it powers up and the screen lights, 
except that there are NO inputs.  The three modules are a "4 Sweep 
Vertical Module, type 4TM", a "Vertical Module Type TM" and a 
"X-Autoshift Module Type TM".  On inspection these seem to be modules 
into which you add your own circuitry as they have a PC with a 
breadboard grid on them.  Two of the modules have what appears to be a 
breadboard of sorts that has been added on stand offs.  There are NO 
inputs for the incoming signal.

It appears that this scope may have potential for a bench top instrument 
but I may have to build my own input circuitry in the modules provided.

Can anyone shed some light on this scope.  Can I convert it for standard 
analog use?  What sort of sweep circuitry is in is, how fast, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
