Hi Tommy,
From the chassis number you have found your car is recorded as being the first production 405 and you are correct it started life as a saloon. If you are a member of the Bristol Owners Club or join you will find more details of it in the car directory in the members section of the website, including some of the photographs when it was offered for sale on ebay last year, described as a drop head conversion. I had been told about the car before as it was then in the process of being converted into a DHC by a former club member. It was one of a small number of cars going through this process and another has surfaced recently with the sale of some of the cars formally owned by the late Brian May.
Geoff.
