I have 1 c4140 with a damaged pcie slot (basically useless anyways) a bent M4 downlink lane connector *(unused in certain configs) and cpu1 socket has 7 bent or missing pins
I have 2 daughter boards one will be salvages and missing a sxm2 6a power connector clip (pins still there) + 3 damaged pin pads , 2 slots should be fine , other daughterboard in better shape bent pins (very few) on pad is bad but in repairable shape for a HomeLab situation
I cannot provide sxm2 chips , lapping brackets or basically any other parts associated with these , however I can provide part numbers and might have parts available as data centers are upgrading to sxm4
I cannot provide any ram, processors or link cables or daughterboard power cables, these boards are as is and not guaranteed to work i dont power them up until work is done so they at least they wont be shorted or anything like that.

the damage occurs from being tossed in a gaylord by unassuming staff that don't understand what they are before sending them down the line to be scrapped.
Ill come edit this as needed will possibly be plucking donor parts,caps diodes ect.
PM for more details or pics.
I dont have a price in mind just want them to go to someone who will appreciate them. I don't want to give them away either though I may have enough nidic ultraflo 1u fans for a setup.

update*
------------
Majority of the pins are bent into shape, (had a guy come with a bunch of micro tweezer, lights, magnifying glasses all that neat stuff )
cpu slot one still missing a couple pins, but will no longer cross, the pcie slot should still be de-soldered and replaced.
both daughterboards are in much better shape and should be ready to plug in and test 
I have found the following parts i could include to help
1x mlb 4a/7a -4b/7b power dpn 0ynp05
2x mlb/plxpwr 5b/6b 5a/6a (can be used for multiple lanes) dpn 0528cn
1x M3/M4 pcie DN1/DN2 cable  dpn 0y6tgj
1x sxm2 1u heatsink
1x sxm2 lapping bracket (these are for mounting the smx2 and heatsink to motherboard )
