where can I find small frames?

hey guys, I'm trying to build a fixed gear for my girlfriend. Unfortunately shes 4'11'' and I'm having a tough time trying to find a frame without it being a slanted top tube type bike. I figured if I can find a 49cm frame I can put it on 650 wheels and it should fit her fine, but I cant seem to find much on ebay and cl without paying a lot.

Ideally I'm looking for a website that sells old bikes so that I can just convert it to save money. I'm really not looking to spend much more than $200. I did check out bd's windsor hour (which is the bike I have), but that's a last resort because it's a little out of budget.

Separate question on the windsor though... At what size do they switch to 650 wheels? I saw that they sell as low as 43cm, but I didn't see any info on its' wheel size.

Any help is good help. And if you think this <$250 bike is not possible lemme know. Thanks in advance guys.
