Lets Play A Game: Last Of The Convertibles

That’s why I posted both. Am puzzled at the eBay ad vs. the tag vs. the build sheets. I understand that not all options may always be on the tag, but this is more good than I remember seeing in other 1970 cars. Please enlighten me?

Many options do not appear on the tag . You will not find the superlite L36 on any tag yet, cornering lights are on there.
 
Hope you enjoyed the cake! Meanwhile, @Zephyr 's white 1970 Plymouth Fury III Convertible with 318 has its nicely cleaned tag here. Another birthday coming up -- 9/22 for this one:

Well now you know how not to miss the big 50 next year!
 
The tag of @TX9's EB7 blue 300 'vert is here: It was built on Sept. 3, 1969
 
I don't think we have posted the tag of @Jeff 's nicely-equipped, N-code 1970 Fury 'vert, which he bought in 2016 and recently sold locally. It is here. Decoding as a lunch-break fun activity:

Damn! Missed an opportunity for a celebratory beer. Better late than never, I guess.

Well, my car's birthday was yesterday. I thought about it on Monday and again today, but forgot it yesterday. I had better not miss her fiftieth next year!
 
I bought a convertible yesterday. Not a C Body- by far! - but still a sweet one. Only had 57,000 miles and it's a 2002!

That Polara 'vert (DL27 L0D 196549) has been discussed in this thread -- thank you for photographing its tag and posting the pictures!

This poor ragtop has a number of interesting features, including being the only light beige (EL1) car of which I am aware, with matching tan body side stripes (V5T). Order number (VON) starts with an M, too.
