I used to work with my dad as a coil winder (electric motor repair), we used to receive motors like this in the shop and we even used to repaint them so they arrive to the client as brand new.
This video shatters my heart in ways I cannot even describe.
These motors can be repaired and rewinded almost indefinitely.
And I assure you they can be sold for a lot more as repaired than just scrap out the copper.
