In other weird AE86 versions.... This is what I saw last week, also nicely done in my opinion.

Confirmed that it has been converted by Voll
I found a German article with the story behind the two companies. HP Schwan (located in Würzburg) actually developed/designed the cabriolet initially, but Voll Karroseriebau (also located in Würzburg) built them. Some sources say Schwan went bankrupt and Voll took over the company. After the A60 series Voll also did the T16 officially via Toyota. Voll went bankrupt early 1990s after the T16 got replaced by the T18. Voll also built Opel Ascona cabriolets but that stopped around 1988 and there was no direct replacement. Quite an interesting story...
