The fact is that many of them do exist and I have run across a few, besides having two that I challenge anyone to find rust on them. I will not buy a rusty coupe regardless of how pretty it looks and how good the leather or carpet is, or if it has 5spd or not. I can tell within a few minutes if a coupe is rusty, and I have looked at a few besides owning about seven of them in my lifetime. There was a 73 that I advertised for someone and took pictures of, and that car was rust free, believe me. But, no one called since it looked bad, needed paint, upholstery and minor mechanical and was an automatic. A friend finally bought it for $1200!!! And, I know he is way ahead of some of those good looking coupes that the owners will one day realize the money they have to spend to get the rust out.
