Hi Jules,
it looks like you found a nice Z80 CP/M system ...
... the CPU card is probably a PROF80, and the I/O board is a GRIP 1 terminal
card. Both of them had been distributed by conitec, germany. The cards were
described in the german computer journal c't (they sold bare boards too) ...
You will find some details at http://www.prof80.de (in german, of course :-))

Any ideas what system these boards are for?

Looks to have been homebrewed into an XT clone case.
Bus connectors are 96 way.
Memory card DRAMS are 21256's, so I presume that's 1MB on the board.
CPU card has a Z80B on board plus memory - and a D765 IC, which I think
is an FDC chip IIRC. ROM is labelled "Prof MON 1.3"
Larger chips on the I/O board are a 6845 CTRC, 8255 (PIA IIRC), Mostek
MK3801 (no idea!), Z80A CPU, 6116 SRAM, and a EPROM (with no label).
There's a homebrew card right at the back with nothing much more than a
ROM on it - unfortunately I can't read the handwritten label, but the
first three letters are "tas".
Anyone able to tell me what the machine is or anything about it?
cheers,
Jules
