Not exactly new but might as well be

I wouldent cut the top off. That will ruin it. If you try to sell it later on as a "permavertible" you will have a hard time. Notchbacks were the lightest and stiffest of all 3 body styles of the second gen cars. The verts had a lot done to them to stiffen em up and were still kinda floppy. I have 2 notchbacks. A 67 and a 69. If your getting it cheap thats a steal.
