Well, been searching for a little bit for a 65-68 coupe and I believe I have found one. The guy selling it might be a board member also as they have a few fox bodies also.

Here's the skinny on the car:

66 coupe. Started life as a 6cyl car but has since been converted to an 8 (all V8 suspension, rear end, motor mounts...) Body is clean and straight. No rot on the body at all with the exception of the pass side floor and the battery tray. Also there is a small spot of bondo on each lower quarter but would take very little work to patch is. The rest of the panel is good. The front pass. fender has a small section of surface rust but is not through the panel. The floor has about 3 holes that you would have trouble sticking a pencil through so all it would require is a very small patch. The frame rails are super clean along with the trunk area. The cowl has already been cut out and repaired. All glass is good along with all the outside trim of the car. Interior is in pretty good shape but needs carpet and the dash pad re-dyed. Has a rebuilt 3 speed with almost no miles. Needs a motor. Has new stainless exhaust and 40 series flowmasters. Has a new gas tank/sender. Wheels don't match but doesn't matter as I'm going aftermarket anyway.

Basically, the body needs very little prep for paint, and needs a motor. I'm picking it up for $1200. Compared to all the other rust buckets in my area, this car is the cheapest by far in as good of shape as it is. Would you pay $1200 for a car in this kind of shape?
