Well, Jose, you could always use it for its original purpose, as part 
(unfortunately the cheapest part) of a Fluke 7105A DC Calibration 
System.  ;<)  These typically consist of a 335A DC Voltage Standard / 
Null Detector, 845AR High Impedance Voltmeter / Null Detector, 750A 
Reference Divider, 720A Kelvin-Varley Divider, and the 721A Lead 
Compensator.  With all of those, in their nice rack cabinet, plus a bank 
of standard cells in a temperature-controlled enclosure (I'd suggest a 
good, used Guildline), plus a few more odds and ends you'll have a 
beautiful classic DV cal system.  Which has been obsoleted by the modern 
Reference Multimeters.  But it's still one of THE classic standards lab 
systems, and one on which I have spent many hours of my life.

Without all of that - it's parts.  :<(

Picture sent separately.

Good luck with use or sale,
Fred
