P1800 ES Wagon with a factory steel sunroof?

Post by Movinginstereo »

Anyone ever heard of a P1800 ES Wagon with a factory steel sunroof?
I appear to have one that I bought years ago off eBay and am just getting ready to restore. It is originally a California car that was seized in a drug bust for smuggling drugs in Michigan and then set in a police storage shop there for years.
I've been told they never came with one.
But if this isn't factory...it was a pretty incredible professional job.
Just wondering if anyone can shed some more light on this car.
Thanks in advance.
