I was thinking it might be a Ford Escort Cabriolet convertible, but the pictures I've found don't seem to match that front end...lol.

Ugh.

Not a home brew conversion, but Hacker is very close, although it is not a Hacker.  Locked to S'smudger for the next 24 hours.

I can see why you've said that, but you are getting colder, so stick with the Hacker connection  ;)

The strangely (appropriately?) named Blow Your Top c.1994?

Blow Your Top.  Sorry Woodinsight, I thought that was a statement of intent!  It is also the correct answer, so well done, and another point to you.

Blow Your Top was one of a myriad of car companies set-up by prolific British kit car manufacturer Tim Dutton.  The company also offerfed a Metro and Vauxhall Nove-based convertible conversion kit, in addition to the Fiesta.
