Anyone consider giving me your thoughts on this?

Yes, it is the same roof. It is actually a fiberglass insert that fits in the standard rear window opening and houses the smaller rear window. A vinyl top was required to cover the seams. The ceiling console was part of the package.

$6500 isn't a bad value figure, but if you're just getting to flip it, I wouldn't go through the hassle. You really need a broadcast sheet -there should be at least one or two in the seats. Uusually they were in the springs of the rear upper cushion but I have found them in both the upper and lower cushions of the front seats and even above the cardboard glove compartment box.

The missing fender tag is a real deal breaker for me. Yes, they reproduce them (not the correct stamping though), but without a broadcast sheet to corroborate the info, you are really just guessing as to the original options.

Steve is correct on this. There was no SE of any sort in 1971, but there was a formal roof package. I believe it possibly may have said "Special Edition" on the doorpanels, but it wasn't a model like it was in 1970. So without the data plate or the build sheet, there's no saying whether it came with the option originally or not. I do know that it's really rare for 1971 (especially in comparison to 1970).

(Steve, that was a nice show in Westport last weekend, no?)
