Best I can tell, is that they are some version of Meilink safe .. Does anyone have any other info .. Would it be worth buying repairing and selling them .. Please advise..

Wilson Safe sells imported safes, some are very good, but they are cheaper than american built safes.
I actually own a safe like your #2, mine is C rated, so the face is 1" steel with a 1/2" steel body-Chinese made but very heavy 585 lbs
I like it & keep my sentry safe inside it, You might compare with Diplomat Safes, they are sometimes very similar
$100 each is a good deal, but they can be difficult to get rid of
