If you go back a page on this thread, you will see that the 'original' hardtop from 2203 was returned to 2138.
All this is covered in the Hardtop thread, the only doubt is where the top from 2142 went, or did it stay with 2142.
There is no evidence to prove there were more than 3 made by AC, and from reading all the information here, plus personal, first-hand knowledge, this is what we know:
CS2131. 100% Definitely it`s original hardtop.
CSX2138. Very likely it`s original hardtop, recovered from CSX2203.
CSX2142. Could be it`s original hardtop, confirmation needed.
