The car I'm looking for is a 1979 thru 1982 coupe de villes that were turned into convertibles, by Hess & Eisenhardt. They named them "Le Cabriolet"

There's a red '79 on eBay right now.

for my own education, what is the Paris option?

It's just another custom convertible. Very similar to the Le Cabriolet. I'm not sure how you tell them apart, actually.

Actually Paris wan't a convertible. It was a stretch-front coupe with fender-mounted spare tires (not sure if they were functional or not). I have some pictures of one...

Benzilla, Thank you! My better half just changed my mind to a 1980 or later. "sorry" :bigroll:

There is a '79 on Ebay right now. I have only seen one Le Cabriolet from the 80's, ever. Good luck.

I saw a red '77-'79 Coupe Deville convertible in Sanford on Monday. Im not sure it was a Le Cabriolet or a custom job. But i think it was. Looked to be in decent shape. The top was shot though. It was at some mechanic shop.
