They got scrapped in their thousands. They mostly had valve amps in and garard decks, and were piss poor. There was a trade in the amps for a while. The nicer ones were stripped and kept as furniture.

Seller won't ship... shame as i wanted these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152328347375
Brum to Dorset isn't really a huge distance ... rattle down the M40/A34 what can it be 2 1/2 hours each way? Saturday morning pick up, early start, meet mid-morning, be home in time for a late lunch. He might even meet you part-way.
You can see that packing up this lot safe enough for shipping would be a major hassle.

It's not possible at the minute. I can see why he wouldn't ship but I could have arranged a courier. Went to Manchester a few weeks back and although we left Birmingham at 3pm we didn't arrive till gone 7pm, so it depends on the traffic..
