I found it on eBay and kind of liked it. eBay number 271 584 577 963

Looks like  a nice conversion sort of a "Mirage" conversion but with all 4 doors intact. Seems to be nicely done and $8750 or best offer.

Not mine!!

Its interesting.   Who ever did it originally apparently had a plan.  Looks like they even shortened it a bit around the back window.  That had to be a lot of work just to change the look a bit.   I wonder how it looks underneath?    Guessing it was a deville that got its back cut off then another one got cut in a different spot and welded on to get the extension.   If it was a commercial chassis you would think they would have left it titled that way.
