I've seen the same window shape as a part of a Greenwood body kit, called the spider if I'm not mistaken.

Eckler made the kit and here's the info from the Greenwood site.

"Spyder" was used by Motion who offered the can am body kit and included a big block I believe in the last of their seriers of Phase III Corvettes. I'm reasonably sure a few had the "Spyder" hood graphics that came from Cherolet's Monza Spyder.

It's a hatchback. And it was done by Eckler's for Terry Michaelis' dealership when new! One of three, I have all info from them, we are 3rd owners. They also did a station wagon kit.

Now THAT makes more sense - I'm sure certain dealers had some 'rarities' to help boost sales...
