That is a really awesome burn-out picture! How many GTOs come to your cruise-ins? It must be hard to get parts over there, but keep up the good work!

The retractable sun roof looks like it is a 1972 Buick sun roof and GM could have used that top in a Pontiac in Africa. Pontiac did have the sun roof on the X-body in 1972. I have a Buick A-body top that I got for a Pontiac some day 1/2 of a convertible that should get some looks a shows.

It looks like it's got a Formula wheel - wonder if there's an X in the vin?

who was it, buick? that made the sun coup? it had a retractable, came out sometime around early 70ish. maybe a "sun coup" top put in place of original? or a weekend chop shop added it to help fight the heat down there.
