They sell as #1 Iron. I've seen them for sale on Craig's List, but I've also seen them for free.

I knew a guy, 20 years ago, who was making a good business out of rebuilding them. He'd buy them, and he had enough of a variety that the could pretty much match any of the different component types and replace what was broken. He was an old codger, and he's long gone now, but you might want to investigate whether that kind of market still exists. Maybe you can get better than scrap price?
