Compare the scrap value of some of the parts to the used selling price, a contactor is worth a few bucks in scrap for the copper but might sell for $50 on Ebay, craigslist or to a member of an EV club in your area.

Scrap value on most of the steel parts is around 10 cents per pound so if you can sell a hydraulic pump for 20 cents per pound you are coming out ahead.
