the wagon is known to be photoshop but it would be difficult to photoshop a convertible.

the first think I looked at was the top edge of the front windshield. A convertible windshield Frame is a specialized design, and it looks right in the picture.

also notice the rear doors are gone.

I've always loved the Radford 420 convertible. Looks good top up or down.

The Blue convertible is on the Register. You can read about it in Newsletter Vol. 7, No. 4.
There are other 'S'-type convertibles in Newsletters Vol. 3, No. 6. Vol. 10, No. 6 and Vol.11, No. 7.
Cheers,
David
