(Edit: It's late, and I initially misread your post and assumed that you were looking to sell, and mist that you were looking for metal specifically. Still, the following still applies)
It would depend on the material, for one thing.
If it's MDC metal or plastic, then it could theoretically be melted down and reused, but if it's MDC ceramic then I don't see much that could be done with it, unless someplace wanted to mix the MDC pieces in with mud or concrete to help strengthen an SDC wall or something.
And keep in mind that most MDC armors are likely to have a lot of ceramics in them, either as cermet compounds or just straight ceramics.
And then you'd have to find a place in the market for MDC scrap, which means you need a tech oriented city if you want to sell any significant amount of it.
As to how much money you could get, that's a tough one.
Scrap metal in the US generally goes for a fraction of the cost of the actual product. Scrap steel goes for about 10 cents per pound, for example.
On the other hand, the original Rifts book gets into the prices that the Black Market will pay for a lot of things, including weapons, armor, vehicles, and bionic or robotic limbs.
So it also depends on what type of scrap you're trying to sell.
