So, there is a TA for sale locally, no fender tag, and only a partial build sheet. With just the vin tag, and door tag, can it be proven to be a TA? No engine either. Door tag has this. JH23J0BXXXXXX It also has the R/t stripe around it's butt., and the TA graphs to.

I don't know anything about it really, other than the picture I have seen. It's local, I might go look at it just to make it public, I don't have any money to buy it, maybe put two people together. What would a car like this with what is wrong with it, but fully restored be worth? Looks to me like $125,000 to restore it. Unless it is in the trunk, the K frame is even missing. 291274 is the last part of the vin.

That car was just on ebay. You better take a good look at the right, front frame at the bumper brackets, it looks like it's rusted completely away along with the inner fender.
I love the smell of Deer guts in the morning, it smells like... VICTORY!

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.

I'm about 15 miles from it, in Tennessee. She said she sold it yesterday. Said it was her brothers car that he bought new, and she got it from his wife. Oh I could tell it is a POS, I just wanted to go look at it and maybe tell other people. She kept saying " I know what I have". It would take $125,000 to do it right, maybe more, and then it still don't have the engine, fender tag or build sheet. I've heard about her before, she thinks she is some sort of expert collector.
