Help need second opinion... my mom owns 2 Zs, they have been grossly neglected.. very unfortunate.. are they of any use to anyone? Was told by several people that the would take them off my hands for free... good idea or bad? Just need honest opinion....

Define "Grossly neglected" and you'll get better opinions.

Pics would be a huge help, exterior shots all 4 sides, engine area, interior, under the carpet, open the doors and hatch and take pictures there, show any rust, etc. etc. To try to define in ONE post, thousands of other posts all defining what makes/breaks a car sale... just not going to happen.

You're in California, and that's a plus for the condition of the cars, but how much of a plus? That will depend on too many factors to list.

That someone would take them for "Free" may mean anything from scrap metal value, to someone looking to score two cars needing some mild work to be daily drivers by literally ripping you blind.

There are several members here that live close to Redding that may chime in with an offer to evaluate, but it's up to them.

I don't live far from Redding. If they're willing to take it off you for free..I'm probably willing to buy them from you AND tow it off your lot.

x2 to the above post

I'll pm you my number.

Yes show pics.

Even badly neglected Zs of the correct vintage can be worth thousands. For example, a 1970z with rust and seized motor may have a pristine uncracked dash and console, which can be sold for $2000+.

Anyone who is willing to take it away for free has likely seen something rare and valuable, otherwise why offer?

I see neglected Z's around here go for $200-$300.00. These tend to be cars that the owner have no interest in and just want them gone.
