Manitou1(answer) 1 1/8" for spares controltech stem xt

Manitou 1 (answer) 1 1/8" for spares/repairs. The crown and steerer are fine as are the lowers, brace and canti studs etc. Elastomers are in there somewhere but are pooped and the stanchions are both rusted up (one worse than the other).
Controltech 1 1/8" quill stem looks about 135mm. Its a flakey mess but would polish up or could be repainted just fine, mechanically its sound.
XT 1 1/8" headset has a little rust on the exterior of the lower cup but should be ok to use after a bearing change, the races are still intact. Ive literally pulled these of a bike looked inside them and put them down again so would benefit from a good clean up etc.
I dont really know what these are worth together so I will take a punt at £30 or thereabouts. If i'm miles off the mark please dont shoot me at dawn with a harpoon, it was just a shot in the dark!
 
Its more than my life is worth waking my other half rooting about for the camera lead so I will post some pics in the morning. Thanks
 
Will post some pics within the hour, I have been lost as sea since posting this ad. Luckily I have been rescued now and am on my way to pick up a camera.
 
Heres some pictures. Like I said ive literally taken them off a bike and not fluffed buffed cleaned or polished anything. The manitou stanchions are past it as they stand but if somebody got crafty with some uber fine wet and dry they could probably be used in a fashion. The rust is worse right at the bottom of the stanchions and theres a wee bit about an inch or so beneath the crown. The rods that hold the uppers and lowers together came out straight away without any grief so im sure they will be useful to harvest for spares or some such thing.
