I misunderstood the original post regarding the "..cost of the restoration parts and supplies." If it's a finished car then it brings to question how long ago the restoration was done, and to what quality level. I still contend that if it's a coupe or convertible you're not getting a bargain at $15K unless it's very nice. If it's not where you can see it can a family member take a couple of pictures, and send you the VIN number and other codes from the VIN tag?
