...that you could get the Plymouth Volaré with T-Tops.

Landau top and T-Tops don't go together that well.

I believe the T-Tops were glass, too, which especially didn't look great with the Landau top.

Is there a feature that looks good with a Landau?

Back when these were close to new, a buddy bought (I seem to remember a performance version-Road Runner?) one of these at auction. His folks had a used car dealership so he had connections. Every now + then he'd pick up a car to flip on his own. (Usually something more sporty than the normal used car lot filler. It was a good plan-he'd get something to beat on for a couple of months then sell it at a profit.) It was a lightly damaged theft recover-but the sunroofs were missing. Turns out not only were they very rare-but quite expensive. I think he spent as much on a pair of new ones ($1700 comes to mind-but going on 35 year memory) as he did on the car!
Come to think of it, he went upside-down on a Mustang from the era too-another theft recovery. this one missing the also crazy expensive TRX metric wheels + tires....

but could you get it with T-tops a Hemi 360, and a stick? because if you could I want two.

It doesn't surprise me that the T-Tops would be expensive, but I wouldn't have guessed they would be that expensive.

I believe you could get one as a Volaré Road Runner or an Aspen R/T, but the 360 was an LA V8 at that point, and was automatic only. I believe the 318 LA V8 was the largest engine you could get with a stick in these.

I have seen a 78 Volare Duster with a 360 and a three on the floor, but I have know Idea if it was original to the car.

I'd be worried they would leak and ruin my fine corinthian leather.

I don't believe it was original, but I could be wrong.
