I can't ID them but I'm sure there not worth very much. You can sell the to me cheap!

Just kidding!

E-bay is the way to go, I've been checking out new engines and they don't look half a nice as your's do. The new ones are quite pricey. A collector should pay well for what you have. Good luck!

You can also poke around sites like Yesteryear:
