Answer
I only remember seeing one, at a local small-town C-P dealer.  It was light blue with a white interior and a white landau vinyl top- sharp car!  Yes, you do have a rare car, as it was the Chrysler LeBaron coupe that usually got the t-tops; adding them to the Volare made it too close in price to the LeBaron, and most people back then would have rather had a "Chrysler" than a "Plymouth" for the same money, even though the two were mechanically identical.  You'll need to search websites devoted to Mopar cars of the era, ones with forums where you could post such a question.  Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Chrysler products built before 1980, but the company tended not to keep records on how many cars were equipped with which options and engines.  I really doubt you'll be able to get the info you're after, but it's at least worth a try.  It may be some time before your car becomes valuable or collectible, but I certainly think it's one worth saving.  Good luck, and enjoy the car!
