Yes, the Marauder had a distinct transition at the trunk line. Would not be considered a fastback i.e. the Barracuda. The rear roofline had a radical forward slant in comparison to other cars of the day. The GM rear roofline for 2 door HTs in those years was meant to resemble a convertible top.
The FoMoCo products were just the first brand that I recall actually using the term FastBack.
