I saw this car a couple of years ago at a non-KF meet. At the time the top had not yet been fitted but the rest of the car was as pictured. It is by far, one of the better done convertible conversions I've seen. Looking at the pic, I see what appears to be snaps for side curtains - like the Darrin.

That car has been around for several years and was offered for sale about a year ago.  The '55 Chevy side trim is interesting.  A couple of different KF dealers made up convertibles back when they were new.
