No. Use them for some MacGyver type activity.
This. The Morgan 4/4 bulkhead was repaired with metal from a scrapped filing cabinet. The front spoiler/air dam was made by me from an aerial tuning unit cover from the major medium wave transmitting station for central Scotland (Westerglen).
The three wheeler engine mounting tubes were made by me from the bull bar in a scrapped Japanese 4x4. The spacing washers for the engine were made by me from a scrapped parking sign from the local snooker club (my brother was a manager). The rear brake actuator was made by me from scrap steel from the old body. Not made by me, but the rear driveshaft was made from a car halfshaft (right type of steel).
If something looks re-usable, I generally do. It's a corking thing to be able to say to someone 'recycling is not the answer, re-purposing is'. And to that end, I'm reclaiming syringes (I have a supply) for them to be used by a local party shop to squirt fake blood at halloween!
