Sigh, no matter what I post, you just won't believe me so there is no reason to bother. The proof is there, both cars exist, one is now in private hands in Georgia (I missed buying this car in Utica NY by 10 minutes back in 1989 (saw it listed in Hemmings), seller worked for Ford concepts division back in the 60's (this one is a convertible). The second was last seen in 1978 (I saw it at a Mustang show at Knottsberry farms in 1978 and wondered what the hell was a "Q" Code Mustang) and last I heard was undergoing a ground up restoration by Drew Alcazar(sp) for a private overseas collector (circa 1991). Used to have both VIN's (I must have sent over 5,000 to the "In Search of Mustangs" guys and then some) but lost that data, along with quite a bit more in a house fire in 1998. Again, don't take my word on it, but when once of them shows up in an article (similar to the only 1967 Shelby convertible made that people like you stated never existed), then you'll appreciate this post.
