Would such aircraft still be airworthy after a year on the Tarmac and exposure to the hot climate there?

Paging owners of 3 abandoned jumbo jets: Malaysia airport will remove them if you don't
By The Associated Press | The Canadian Press – 14 hours ago
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - Attention owners of three jumbo jets parked at Malaysia's main airport: please remove your aircraft immediately or the airport will.
Malaysia's airport operator took the unusual step of posting photos in two major newspapers of the three Boeing 747-200s that have been sitting idle for more than a year. The notice this week warns the owners that the airport has the right to sell or dispose of the planes unless they are collected within 14 days.
Kuala Lumpur International Airport General Manager Zainol Mohamad Isa said Wednesday such notice is normal in a bid to recover debts owed to Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad, after exhaustive but futile efforts to locate the owners. They are believed to be foreign entities that could have ceased operations.
