It's the first one on the page:

I'm intrigued by it (even if it is a Ford), but I don't want to jump on it if it's overpriced.

That seems like a very fair price to me regardless of lacking parts and the need for patch panels, etc.

Not bad and looks fairly complete---what are you planning to do with it though? If your going to rod it, you can probably sell the pther parts and recoupe half of your money.

Sport coupes are not all that common, kinda the ugly duckling of A models to most.

Here is some inspiration though. Built by Clark over on the HAMB (there is a nice build thread). It is on a 32 frame and has a fiberglass top.

Oh yeah...I'd be rodding it!

I was kinda thinking along those lines too...the spoke wheels and stuff gotta be worth something, at least, to the resto crowd, and do me no good.

Flipper- I LIKE...that thing is pretty cool!
