For those cars to move they need to bring somebody in who knows what they are doing and assemble the packages. I don't think anybody will want just the shells.

I did that once for a 36 Su8 Victoria. The car was 98% complete and everything was laid out and documented. It was straight and solid. The body fit was good and the wood was solid. It was wonderful to look at. You don't know how good those convertibles were put together until you see one like that. But it needed everything. The idiots undid everything I did and I later saw just the "bones" for sale. If nobody would buy that car with all the parts then I doubt anybody will go for those cars above.

What could have saved that 36 Victoria would have been to have me hang all the loose parts back on it, get it running enough to get on and off a trailer and send it through Barrett-Jackson with no reserve. But everybody thinks they have a gold mine.
