This looks to me like the power supply and backplane

to be in nice shape. Surprised no one grabbed this yet, esp someone with
an 11/05 that has issues with power supply. Someone might have the missing
parts.

It looks to me like a standard Unibus expansion chassis (a BA11-KE, as the
auction says) with a 9-slot DD11-D backplane and a pair of 4-slot
backplanes (not sure what they are, they may also be DD11's, I'm not good
at identifying them from the back ;)). It could potentially be for an
11/05, but only if that 9-slot backplane isn't a DD11-D and is instead the
special backplane for the 11/05 CPU set...

granted "all you need are the cards and the front panel" reminds me of the
