Question Vintage plugs refurbished

sorry no pics ..... just a question

If I could find someone to do this..... any sense in having some old plugs fixed up and repainted for mojo sake....I`m talking beat so as not to have collector value.

Example: if they needed new lips, rewired, and sealed and painted.
I have split rings and plenty of hooks.

opinions welcome and appreciated,
Mike

Good health and family

If they fished well, fixing them up could breathe new life into them. I see no reason not too as they are not collector's items anyway.
