    Would be an easy way to build one - take the side windows off, stick the targa section to the roof and then just fill in the back window / tray area.
    It does look like a Baur convertible early model car, but they refitted the entire drive line, so late model expansion tank. Also, the side of the B-pillar says "D'Resi", not "Baur". It's also kind of interesting that they converted it to a late model instrument cluster to go along with the drive train.

          It is not a coupe/2-dr, its a notchback.

                Are you really 84? I've heard convertibles being called verts since the early 90's at least.

                      No, I am not quite your age (turning 60 in a couple of years), but I have heard this term being used for a long time.

                      Congratulation! I hope to be able to drive my vert long into my 80s.
