For old ice car the solution often is to swap with used parts from wrecked vehicles. Not suitable for batteries.

We had a 2010 Ford Transit van (diesel) and after 189000km, we sold it because the parts were becoming too hard to source (disclaimer: in New Zealand).

For old EVs the solution is to deal with used parts from wrecked vehicles. It can absolutely be suitable for batteries.
