I watch the 25th car and parts market constantly. In my opinion there is really no point in pulling the used 25th exclusive items off of these two cars for resale. Most original items can be found regularly on Ebay.
Door badges? Why would I buy 98k mile ones removed from a car when originals are readily available at a decent price.
White Bird Taillight center section? Likely faded after 16 years. To refinish it correctly the bird needs to be screen printed on.
Wheels, will need to be refinished.
Seats and door panels? Also probably very worn, and it would take a miracle upholstry person to restore them.
That isnt to say these items should be tossed, yes they should be saved, but I'd suggest sitting on them for another 10 years until the market starts to restore these cars. Then people will want original items to refinish when the NOS parts supply has run out.
As far as these cars go I think they are worth saving but they both will need alot of work to get them in like new condition. They would take less work to turn into decent drivers.
