Looking at a 1960 Plymouth brochure which includes a list of the "new and exciting features" coming for the 60's,theybdont even list a convertible, let alone hard top convertible.
This drawing doesn't show the cutout/scallop on the front corner of the early 60's Plymouth.
Fury is the only convertible I can think of off-hand from that era, and it was soft top. Add that Plymouth went unit body in the late 50's, a hard top convertible would be extra challenging, I think.
Still, there's lots I don't know about Plymouth at that time, so I'm not sure what they actually made.

In big parts due to car brains and their moronic addiction to consumption and destruction.

Yeah, I think society is about 50 years out from seeing this ad the way we do cigarette ads. And the most optimistic Í am about anything.

It's a hardtop convertible. No B-pillar.

I think it's just a stylized drawing.

Judging by the text, it is definitely older than 1960, since they refer to that year as the future. The model seems to have come out in 1957.

Nothing say 'tomorrow' like a retro design car in a car dump!
