[Amps] 3-1000 Amplifiers

I have a 3-1000z out of a Harris RF-103.  The tube had full output when the amp was last energized sometime in the late 1990's. 
In 2001, Tropical Storm Allison flooded Houston and a strip of land near Lafayette LA which included my house.  Our house had to be quickly stripped for a complete restoration, so any of my equipment which had been in the water was tossed in the dumpster.  The flooded equipment included several amps, including the RF-103. Frustration and aggravation at the moment caused me to toss the stuff; I have long regretted not moving it to storage with the undamaged equipment.  The tube has not been in the water.  I pulled the tube before tossing the amp. 
 
There is no way for me to fire up the tube for testing and  rehabilitation after long shelf storage.  We have been hanging on to it for no particular reason, other than I am a hoarder when it comes to amplifiers/parts. If someone has a need for a 3-1000z, I could be pursuaded to part with this one.
