Building Old Kits??

I'm getting ready build a few old unassembled heathkit's and other
kits
from the 1960's and 1970's. I was wondering if I have to worry about
the
original components degrading with time, or, should they still be ok
if
never used in a circuit? Particularly, the capacitors and resistors.

Anything to worry about?

Apart from converting several hundreds of dollars into a very few
dollars <G>?
