Original Springs/Shocks of a '96

Last winter, I finally changed out the original suspension on my '96 C2 - shocks, springs, control arms. Before / After shot included for dramatic effect

I can't imagine there's any use for the original, 33-year old springs, but thought I'd check before tossing them. Does anyone have a use for them?

I would keep them, as I believe you have the only 1986 993 in existence.

Toss them as far as humanly possible, or use them as a boat anchor.

Did you go with lowering springs? I went with M030 and Bilsteins. I love the stance and ride now. The Monroe’s were really bad.
