I would do it, you have no idea how long the starter has been in the car and how many starts it has done. If you ever have starting problems in the future you can rule that out. People don't like to hear me talk about starter problems.....but use common sense....are they really suppose to last 30 years? Carbon builds up in them when brushes ware, grease gets hard....starter starts to over heat....kills the battery.....call it preventive maintenance
