Id buy locally, You can have it inspected locally and you have the car in the flesh, there are lots out there, you just need to look and be patient, My bro bought one local, I pushed him to be patient and one will come up, and low and behold after a couple of months now has a really nice 67 coupe, its honest, straight and rust free, rather than FREE RUST!
Relax...its a buyers market.
