When you say local....do you mean right by you, or not too far from Asheville? If it's near Asheville, it's the real deal....but just a hull with no motor or transmission. Used to be an automatic on the column that got half ass converted to a 4 speed. FK5 with burnt orange interior. I tried to buy it 35 years ago....and the guy that had it was gonna fix it up sometime soon!

Edit - I looked at the link Mastershake posted, and it's the same car I was thinking of. Not sure if it's still here in Asheville or not? The hood hinge bolt holes have been filled with bondo, and thanks to Windows 10...I blew a pic up enough to verify it's the same car. It supposedly had a Hemi in it for a while, with a 4 spd. It was on Craigslist here a few years ago for $25K. It's a decent car to fix if you gotta have the VIN, but no more than is left of it I'd just as soon have a clone.
