There was a guy that had an ad on the local craigs list a while back for a complete roof but he was in Conroe, Texas.

There is a group called "Mustang Mania" in Katy, Texas that has lots of parts cars...might be worth checking with them. http://www.mustangmania.com/

you're about the first one with a chopped coupe roof who isn't welding a fastback piece on it :-)

good luck finding one

I don't know how far you're willing to travel but this ad on craigslist sounds like just the thing you're looking for. It's in far western Kentucky though. The ad doesn't say, but I know that it's a coupe roof. I had emailed the guy a little while back asking if it was a coupe or fastback.

If you look around, you'll sometimes find someone parting one out. I got the left side sail panel and frame from a guy in SA, TX, forget his name, but was kinda sketchy, as after I sent money I searched his name. Turned out he had stiffed numerous people in the past. He came through with the parts, but took a bit.
