goodluck with that man. its good that honkeytonks chop is a pre-98 too. so that helps a little more to see what it could look like. but yeah you're going to HAVE to keep us updated on this if you get this set in motion.

I don't understand ... for that amount of money, why not just buy a car that is a coupe to begin with? You're running a risk turning a sedan into a coupe (you'll be eliminating the B pillars or if anything moving them much further back).
It sounds nice if done properly, but personally I just don't see the point. If you want a coupe with the Contique platform, simply buy a '99+ Cougar.

I really need to learn how to PhotoShop. Here's my two attempts at a coupe and convertible, albeit the "traditional" way, with pencil and paper:
