What to do with IC's from Peavey Stereo Chorus 400?

I have a whole bunch of IC's from an old Peavey Stereo Chorus 400 and I'm wondering if anyone has any good ideas for using them!
Here they are:
8038CP 8516
RC4558P
084CP 8512
MN3007 46
RCA 501
Thanks!

Use the search function and some of this buddies will appear (at least 4558 and 3007)
Follow those projects and you'll get a lot of info to work.

From the top:
The 8038 is a function generator IC - quite expensive these days. It's a Voltage Controlled Oscillator with sine, square and triangle outputs. You could use it as the modulation oscillator for a tremelo, and use the different wave shapes for quite different sounds.
The 4558 is the cheap, generic dual op-amp used in Tubescreamers.
The 084 is a quad FET input op-amp. Use it in a circuit that needs four op-amps!
The MN3007 is the "Bucket Brigade" Delay IC. Build a Zombie Chorus or a Clone Theory Chorus - it's used in both.
I'm not sure about your RCA 501 - is that all of the markings?
http://www.datasheetcatalog.com/ is a superb resource, and you can find all this out for yourself easily!
