It's a shame you're asking now - David Lovett (aka Usagi Electric on
YouTube and a regular at VCF conventions) had a bunch of PDP-11 gear
he was giving away. He got a boatload of the gear donated to his
channel and after collecting bits he thought he could use, he gave the
rest away to anyone who had a use for it and could collect it or get
it shipped to them.

An emulator might be your best bet.  A quick Google points to a number
of options available.
