Notice the little ridges on the lower ends of the rear spoiler. I also saw the rear upper seat back there tucked away.
SUPER NICE!!

those chrome latches on the trunk look like they're of a boat or something

That is one of the nicest one's I've seen for sale. Although for being supposedly rare you sure seem to see a lot of them for sale. L69 5-speed helps.

I've always been fairly impressed with the AutoForm conversions. I'm the proud owner of one currently...And actually have not seen another in person...I've seen pictures of several others before...Oddly enough, the ones I've seen on eBay tend to be the same ones, seems like they cycle through...I do agree on the rear trunk thing though...

Marks Custom kits, the one that does the Knight Rider conversions, recently converted an AutoForm into a KITT replica, and developed a rear cover for the AutoForm's without the rear trunk "flap". I'm thinking I'm going to get one of them eventually...

Has anyone noticed it's an air condition delete car? I think that makes it a little more rare--H.O and a/c delete!

I find it interesting that it was originally a hard top, not a T-Top car, no CC1 in the rpo codes.

A/C is an add on option, not a delete.

Also someone shaved off the nose emblem.
