IDK where it was built. Yes, sunroof. I owned it when I lived right near the beach in East Atlantic Beach, NY, so it rusted badly. I commuted on a badly potholed street, way too fast and broke out the rear shock tower tops. My mechanical engineer brother designed a repair and had it welded up for me.
It was a fun car to drive, but attracted fuzz. It was red. Luckily I was ticket-proof.

Did you have to cut a notch in the bar to get a full 90 degree swing inside the caliper? I think my ruler might be 1 1/4" wide. It definitely needed the notch. Was yours a sunroof car from the plant in Belgium? How rusty was it?
