Anything t-top qualifies for unicorn status. I'm sure someone here can give you actual numbers. My dad's Diplomat has t's and only a few hundred were made in 80.

According to Govier's book, out of 54,144 Volares...
Road Runner = 1,137
t-top Volares = 487
360cid Volares = 217
Put the 3 options together and you probably have something in the double digits

The car certainly ended up with the right person then. Sorry for your loss.

Thanks for your kind comments . . . yes, she had some of the local car vultures hovering and thinking they would get something for nothing . . . but she knew the right people to call and help her work through everything. It is sad, but part of life. My buddy was reason I got my first F body(76 Road Runner,57k mile original survivor, 318, 4spd od, fold down seat) . . .he was floored when I showed up at his place with it . . . some happy memories . . .

Govier's numbers are for cars sold in the U.S. only. His numbers do not include cars sold in Canada.
