Default 67' Rarity?

I own a 67' Mustang Coupe with a hard vinyl top. A friend upon inspection told me about a rare mustang that was both a hardtop, and a soft top (convertable). Meaning one could remove the hardtop and then if it were to rain put up the soft top...sounds crazy to me but I figured I'd ask if anyone else has heard of such a thing? I'd appreciate any info.

It was a Ford option in 65 or66 for convertiblesthat didn't take off. I saw one of the newer versions at the MCA car show in Concord, CA, last month. Passed right by at first then came back for a second look.

From my understanding, Ford made five total hard tops for 65-66 convertibles - that's all.

i have seen hardtops you could put on a convertablebe but they was aftermarket. rarest things in the 67/68 i know of is a bench seat and a rumble seat.

I believe cruise control was more rare than a bench seat. I have seen WAY more bench seat mustangs than I have with cruise control. 1 and counting.
