I haven't seen one in person, but thought there were more than 7 built. Retractable t-tops was advertised fairly well back then, IIRC.

I've been watching T-top Eldorados for a while now. Both power and non-power.

Here are a few of the power ones I have come across.

I see the blue one in the top ad (Bringatrailer) is now listed on Ebay. But somehow it went from Los Angeles to Middletown, New York and has only one photo.

A scammer perhaps?
