No, all early convertibles were 2-seaters. That's an aftermarket conversion, with quite an unusual large box section above the propshaft?

That's what I thought, it does look cool though.

Perhaps they moved the location of all convertible top hydraulics and relays to that center section to accommodate the seat?

Interesting, definitely a conversion. I don't see any rear seatbelts. Perhaps it just has lap belts that are pushed between the back and bottom of the seats when not in use.
