[R-390] Cures for a disease.

I wonder if anyone here can help or suggest possible options.

Over many years I've collected all sorts of equipment, a lot of which 
would have been consigned to landfill there being a very limited 
interest in this sort of material out here in S.E. Asia. This all 
started with an interest to acquire a Collins KWM-2A but has since 
spiraled a bit out of hand, I'm at about 15 KWM-2A's, 516F-2 psu's and 
312B-4 control unit wattmeters as of now, in various states. More 
specifically so far as this list is concerned are the 2 R-390, 1 R-390A 
and 1 R-725, all pretty much original and complete. What on earth am I 
going to do with these? I can see possibly keeping the R-390A but its 
really hard to justify the other 3. I would sell them, happily, but I 
doubt there is anyone within 5000 miles of here with similar interests, 
I'd happily gift one if I could find an interested party. Shipping a 
390, hahaha!!! So what are the options? Landfill just seems so wrong. 
About the only other option I can think of is to gut them, sell of the 
modules and the various parts.

What would you do, faced with a similar ordeal?
