I suppose that IF they gave you a real good deal, you can accept the "as-is" thing. A coupe with that many miles should have sold for $8,000 - and, in any event, not more than $9000.
But the above post is right - you need no parts, just about 1 to 2 hours of your time.
I think the list of tools I used were:
Vise Grips
#2 Phillips Screwdriver
8mm (or was it 10mm?) nutdriver/socket
very small torx screwdriver (that I used as a punch/probe to push the pin in, to get the lock cylinder out)
That is about it. I am not much of a mechanic at all - and I had it done in under two hours. The only HARD part is putting the stupid lock cylinder/switch assembly back in after you modify it - THAT is where the vise grips saved the day!
