Quite pricey and only if they hadn't updated the cosmetics...rare.

I have never seen anything like that. Guess I need to get out more. Love the side pipes.

Were there many convertibles made? Reminds me a little of the 70's Ford Broncos.

That car does not look right(front spoiler looks much newer and holes in air filter assembly). I know that Brabus and AMG did put in the M117's into the G class but I don't think they did that back in 1984 only later.

Yeah it looks pretty mixed up.

Here's a period reference photo of the 4 door.
