Found some old PCBs full of Elna Cerafine capacitors. Caps still usable?

Hi fellas,
Came across a few high quality PCB boards from a top of the line Sony DAC from the 1980s. They are full of high quality Elna Cerafine caps.
I was thinking of using them in a DIY project. The caps appear to be in excellent condition.
I'm guessing they have a much longer life expectancy than regular caps.
Should I go ahead and use them?
Thanks,
crooner
