Hi Bill,
The box on the bottom looks like a BA11-KE expansion box with two 9 slot
backplanes it in. Since the 11/44 has a few DD11-CKs in it, the ones down
below might be for mass storage like a RH11, RK611, TM02 or 3, etc.
Might be worth checking it out. It could up the value some.

I think the cabinet is worth retaining and restoring. In my limited
experience,
it's easier to find naked DEC computer units than it is to find
them in their original rack cabinets. The internal TU58 is also worth
restoring, even if the drives and/or controller board need to be replaced.

And, it's not that bad really, the pics expose the problems / rust so
people get the full story. Hires photos always make something look worse
than it really is.
