After fully reading your post and looking at the car... You'd be hard pressed to find another one that someone will pay more than $1,200 bucks for...
They're just not that popular...
Plus he don't want to let you test drive it?
That's FISHY.

Offer an Honest $1,200. WHat do you car that he say's the engine is rebuilt 50 K miles ago......
Remind the dude that back in the 60's 99% of all motors were WORN OUT at 85 to 90K miles and 50K on a rebuild is no reason to pay top dollar.
It' already lived through HALF it's usefullness as an engine.

There's no proof that it's the 351 Windosr... Maybe it's a cheapo 302 someone put in it...

Not running and not able to test drive and a $3,500 dollar price tag I am positive he got too deep into it .

I'll bet he want's out of the car thinking that CHROME and the word 50K on rebuild and a Maco $500 paint job will mean $$...
