Those drivers are rare to find for sure. Don't know how much I should ask for first. I don't want overprice it. just want sell them at right price.
For further information I suggest you try the UK Vintage Radio forum. Some people on there are experts at identifying this sort of stuff.
One curious feature I noticed is that it uses beehive trimmers; compression trimmers were far more popular in domestic equipment. Also, the tuner seems to use 'octal sized' IFTs with minature valves. This may help date it.

One of our fellow DiyAudio members Rockaway may be a good candidate for the drivers...he's a big Wharfedale driver fan...I've taken the liberty of directing his attention to this thread....
Why not keep and restore the whole thing as minimally as possible? It's a bit of history and Canada is a big place, surely you've got a little bit of room. I must be of similar vintage, and would most certainly object to having my guts torn out and sold. These things have souls, you know.

Too late for that I fear....London has already disposed of the cabinet...if they aren't going to E-prey but instead to a real Wharfefdale aficionado who's actually using the drivers I'm certain GB would approve...
Just caught up with this thread thanks to Devilsinthedetails. I certainly would be interested in these drivers however this is probably not the place to discuss such things. Thanks Leo .

I felt really guilty for destroying the cabinet. I had no choice because it is too big and heavy. I will be moving out soon after.
I already tried there
Need identification for Heathkit radio - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum
No further discussions after March 15. I might be in wrong section in the UK forum.
Don't...it took up a lot of Real Estate and wasn't an EH Scott or something of that calibre...you have the innards and as Eli says it will make a nice amp after mods...
Suggesting it might be a Heathkit in the title over there could have restricted replies. You could ask the mods to change the thread title.
IFTs from Weyrad might narrow it down. It could be that the whole coilpack was from Weyrad - it certainly seems to be a separate component from the main chassis.
