Do you know how many were built that year with the sunroof, it also looks like a Rallye.

Thanks for the warm welcome,
Do you know how many were built that year with the sunroof, it also looks like a Rallye.
Not real sure on a number was told that only 3% to 4% were fitted with a sunroof, maybe some will know here?

Snapped this picture today after work, have a few more places to sand ,then a coat of K36 with a splash of reducer should be ready for final sanding then paint.  Was busy at work but did manage to get the pattern set up on the diff only had to change the pinion depth twice, that was so nice, hope to get it all but together this week.

I've only seen a couple of factory sunroof E bodies at car shows. Great quality work you've done so far.
