Well Greg,  I can be of some help.  Good news and bad news...

I can send you brand new polar relays.  I have four different vintages.

I do not have any extra gear shift mod kits. I have no gears (or any 
other spare parts) for MITEs.

I have a used military distortion scope you can have, but I do not 
have any extra generators that work.

I have no extra typing units for you.  The museum needs the ones we have.

I have some patch panels that need cleaning but you can have them.

If I box up all of this and send it to you... You need to pay for the 
shipping, AND make a donation to the museum.

Regards,
Don
