Default 2GS convertible/ragtop??

Is there such a thing as a convertible 2GS? I was on vacation in Virginia and I saw this. Is this a custom job or did they buy it like this?

Just because you have been around for awhile does mean you have seen it ALL. LOL Nope have not done the audio build yet. I saw a camera at SEMA that would be a good keyhole camera. I will think of the company name and send you a PM.

true, true. but i recall one of those posts that got closed had a ragtop in it. here's the thread but the post on autotrader isn't up anymore so the pics not there. post 8 and 30 mention the ragtop though
