Default 72 Nova - interesting option

Stopped by a friend’s house today & he had a ‘72 Nova sitting outside. Nothing really special - just a 307 column shift automatic. Bench seat with rubber mats. It did have this interesting fold back sunroof option. I’ve never seen it before, but I’m no Nova expert.

He said that they only made 168 with that option. He’s selling it if anyone is interested. Not sure where it’s listed for auction. If anyone has interest - PM me and I’ll put you in contact with the owner.

My wife ordered a new 73 Nova and the only 2 options she didn't check off were a/c and this roof. Very few were made in each year.

I have production numbers on these but I'm visiting my dad at the moment. Somehow I don't believe the number 168.
