Making something out of a kitchen robot motor

I don't even know if this motor works. I have to start with that. But an old kitchen robot my mom used broke and I took it apart. There were some interesting "design choices" (just like fixed 30fps) but overall it all seemed fine.

I thought of making something out of the motor inside. This baby even used a timing belt between the motor and the thing it powered. That gave me an idea of using that motor, getting something to power it and making it into a fun vehicle.

I'm currently studying at a school where this could even be a project.

Do you think that it is possible to make something out of it or it's wayyy to stupid?

 

Also, there was a little bit of plastic (light gray, glossy, nothing written on it) that had wires going into it from the control PCB. It was filled with paper and tinfoil rolled up which I have no idea what it was for. Maybe a capacitor of some sort?
