Buying & Selling - July 2006

My grandmother passed away recently without a will, and I am her only living relative. After speaking with an attorney, I have found that it is not worth probating her estate. Basically, she had no assets except for a car. And it would cost my husband and I $2,000 to probate her estate just to get title to a car that is maybe worth $1,000, so we would end up losing money. This is not something we are willing or financially able to do at this time.
But this leaves us with this car. The title is in my deceased step-grandfather's name, and can not be put into my name without going through probate.
What can I do with this car? Can I junk it? Will someone take it for parts? What are my options?
