Default Old Cam Question

I am trying to clean out the garage and have had these 3 cams laying around for years. One is a speed pro 1038 with maybe 1000 miles on it, one is an old CC 280H, and I believe the last on is an original 068. Not sure how many miles on the last two. Picture below. Wondering if there is any real use for these or if they should just go in the recycle pile.

Also have a set of lifters that were installed with the 1038 cam. These are 20+ years old and I think comp cams lifters (I think still USA made at that time). They look to be in good shape, but again, any real use for them.

Someone might want the 280H and the 068 if you had the lifters in order.

I would hang on to the cams or sell them. They have some value and new cam cores are very hard to find now and probably for the next year of so.

Here are some pics. It is a melling spc-7 cam which is a remake of their 068. It has the same specs as the 068. One lobe has some surface rust. Look it over a let me know what you think.
