I've never heard of such a beast. Is this really from the factory or converted by an aftermarket company?

ASC and a few other people made some, I believe there's a bit of info, do a search in the history section, I remember seeing some posts there about the 2 seat convertables.

There was one of those running around town here a while back. Haven't seen it in about 3 years tho.

I want to get one of those, scrap the 82-84 gfx, nose and bumper, and spoiler, and then put 85+ gfx all around we well as a 91-92 Z28 highrise wing.

I can tell ya a bit 'bout that 'maro...
It was coverted by AutoForm of Elkhart Indiana. You can tell by the fiberglass cover and the rigid top. I also have an Autoform convertible, but of the firebird kind...

Don't know much more about 'em, except the information from the brochure...
