The warbird salvage guys will settle on a single usable part, a rivet, a rubber grommet, etc and build a new replica aircraft around it.

That's better than some original Gibson banjos from the 1930s that have had three replacement necks, two new resonators, and a new tone ring.

Reminds me of the auctioneer selling a hammer, said, “This hammer is over 200 years old! It’s had 2 new heads and 5 new handles!”

Methinks it’s not the same hammer, but that’s just me.
