Question Is there such a thing as an affordable or project car Viper?

Something like a 1st gen Viper, 92 through 95 model. Either in need of an engine or just an abused but not destroyed example.
Perhaps a Viper in need of an engine due to abuse, yet otherwise complete?
Is there such a thing, or do they all get scooped up the moment they become available to be repaired and resold?
I remember when they came out I wondered if they'd ever depreciate enough to where a common man could own one.
What's a "cheap" Viper go for these days, anyone know?

Couldnt do anything with any of them here in NY, they all have salvage titles. I could pick one up to pull the drive train out of and use it in something else though.
