For 1989, the unusual Dakota convertible was rolled out. It featured a fixed roll bar and a simple manual top. Roughly 2,482 were sold that first year. The idea came from Jerry York and they were manufactured by ASC (American Sunroof Company, now known as American Specialty Cars).1 #fn1 Another important addition that year was Carroll Shelby's V8-powered Shelby Dakota, his first rear-wheel drive vehicle in two decades.The sport convertible was the only convertible Dakota available, and was only available until the early 1990s, when it was finally discontinued. It added the following features to the mid-range sport trim level: sport-styled alloy wheels, cloth seating surfaces with vinyl inserts and accents, an AM/FM stereo with cassette player and a four-speaker audio system, air conditioning, a manual-folding vinyl convertible roof, and sport decals on the doors of the Dakota. The V6 engine and two-door regular cab was the only available configuration of the sport convertible. This Dakota has some rust and rot on the lower parts of the truck and the drivers side floorboard under the feet is gone and the passenger side has 2 small holes and the passenger frame rail needs some repair.
