I have a number of modules that I got many years ago from a scrap yard
in Charleston, SC.
These were sold as scrap by DRMO Charleston after they were chiseled out
of the chassis to chisel out the "gold" connectors from both the module
and the chassis.
They are pretty beat up but should provide most of the parts to complete
the chassis.
A long project, but gives me a module that has no paper caps and no out
of tolerance carbon comp resistors and can be built with TFE insulated wire.
