I would ask what the person is wanting and since it doesn't run thats you bargaining tool and since it needs interior thats about 4,000 plus dollars right their so if the engine is not seized up and has compression and oil and holds water in the radiator Pull one of the plugs and see if their is any rust in the cylinders and if clean offer him a low number you can afford because if the engine need to be overhauled too and brakes you will be dishing out a lot of money Somewhere in the 10,000 to 18,000 dollars range. Flathead's are not cheap to overhaul. Brake parts are expensive too. Also crawl under the car if no lift is available and check the rear of the car behind the rear axle and check for rusted out body panels and above the gas tank use a mirror because the spare tire support has a well that collects water if the trunk seal goes bad and they rust out big time and are not easy or cheap to replace. and take a magnet with you not a strong one just a small toy magnet so you can find Bondo patches because these old Fords are generally rusted out and the Quarter panels just behind the doors go away too . Floor boards are a big rust out area and the rear window box that collects water from the rear window rusts out all the time and no one makes that part any more and tend to be a rats nest . A good check of these thing will save you a lot of trouble and money and if the seller starts to get weird walk away He or she is hiding something . Good luck .
