I've done 'bout seen about everything...

...to quote the crows in Dumbo, "I've done 'bout seen about anything when I seen an elephant fly"...
 
Ok, it's not an elephant, but it is certainly strange:

First cloth top I've ever seen on an 83 or newer T-Bird. Seen 'em on Marks, Cougars, and even Mustangs, but not T-Birds.

i think on the EZ board, daren posted an 85-86 with a cloth top, and i think another guy owned an 87-88 with a cloth top
It's Gumby's fault.

The one Dare posted was just two-tone red/white, I think (may have been cloth, though). A friend of mine had a '79 Mustang notch with the 2.8 V6 and a white cloth roof.

I dont even see where they get off calling that a cadalliac, is it just because it has a vinyl top? From the pic's they have on ebay thats the only different thing i can see.

I saw a 90's T-Bird that was white with a green cloth top. I don't mean like a dark green, no I'm talking as green as a traffic light is when it's lit.

I have seen some other white 90's T-Birds that had a dark blue cloth top.

Saw a 1983 Heritage with the cloth top, others too. 

The best was a 1985-ish Tbird with a Mark VII looking Continental kit...I'll post the pic if I can find it. :)
