Would something like a Purdue Dual VAX count?  VAX-11/780s are known to 
exist, and not exceedingly uncommon, but I'd be surprised to find an 
intact dual-VAX setup, though I hope to put one together some day..

In any case, I think that most machines from the 1950s or early 1960s 
(that weren't 1-offs) would fall into this category.
