50s Olds Bumper and Rocket motor

Hey everyone, I don't know much about these two cars but a friend and I were permitted to cut them up for scrap. They are way out in the woods up on a mountain here in upstate NY. One is an AMC Rambler and the other is the big Olds with the V8 rocket. The Olds is already pretty much gone except for the front bumper and the motor/tranny. There was no hood on the car for a long time so I assume the motor is pretty much only worth scrap? We got it out and rolled it a few times and water was coming out everywhere.

The bumper isn't in great shape but I couldn't bring myself to throw it away before I looked into possibly giving it a better home than a scrap pile.

I will include a few pictures of what we found, any info on these two cars is appreciated. Is there anything special about either of these two that is of value or worth saving? I have the bumper at the house if anyone wants better pictures.

Thanks,
-Rob

Olds looks like a 57.

If you've got the time any of the trim, chrome stainless or aluminum would have demand. Some of the pieces are a little more tricky to remove. But if it's going to the melting pot then its worth trying. John
