The coupe in question: The first question that came to mind is "How bad was the fastback to justify cutting the roof off?".  In BJ's words, "Well, it was broken in half.." As illustrated in the picture below, the car had rusted to the point of falling in on itself.   All of the important structures had rusted through...
