I would say that if you take the top off, they don't have a lot of choice, but our opinions don't matter. The show organizers will decide.
That is the same reason, I tell customers that you cannot build a guaranteed 100% show winner.....the rules, or opinions are changed, every time the judges are changed.

IMHO.... if it has no top regardless of how it gets that way retractable or removeable it is a convertible.... The 56 T-Bird had both removeable hard top and a retractable cloth top behind the seat

It's either (1), a roadster - that is, no roll up windows or (2), a convertible - with roll up windows. Yours, IMHO looks to be a roadster.

If it had a solid front windshield, soft top and roll up windows then it would be a cabriolet (or in other terms, a convertible)

But then, what do I knowand of course the people in charge will need a good argument from you

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
