It is a shame he let these cars sit so long. Hard to say if they are worth being parts cars now. The pic says 2008, could have been good parts between now and then.

If you had the time and space Gene I bet you could part out what's too rusty to save... maybe all of them. Over the years I've dismantled four 1966-67 Toro's and there's demand out there for good used parts, especially options like the cornering lights I see on one of them. I even found a UHV setup on a 1967 once.

the one in the first picture is half buried in dirt, that and judging from the rust I'd say they've been out there for at least a decade.

I'd bet they have not moved in 30+ years. Such a shame. They will be Swiss cheese from the floor on down, even in CA. Can't leave 'em sit in mud. That said, I see parts I could use on mine. If anyone gets these, contact me.
