Here's the last info that I received on the body dies. My 
understanding is that they are still where they were dumped, although 
the owners are considering pulling them up now if anyone is 
interested in paying for the effort. Not that there's really any 
demand at this point. 

I've never heard a story about cars being dumped, that would make no 
sense at all as the "receiver" of the company went to the effort to 
complete unfinished cars as the 1983 models.
