Introduction / Overview:
This was the last year (1980) that any of the Big 3 offered a completely convertible SUV. The original steel top unbolted at the windshield and along the side rails. Unfortunately the steel top was too heavy for 2 people to remove and so I took it off permanently and purchased a soft top. Purchased in California in 2002.
