Just for interests sake...this is on EBay and described as "Factory convertible so very rare". Would I be correct if I thought it was a chop shop jobby??

Beetles were available as a convertible from the factory, several different designs over the years........

I spent 10 years working restoring Aircooled VW's....Believe me that is a home made chop.....The original cabriolet's were Karmen....If unsure when looking, look for a proper folding roof and rear windup windows as well as the proper strengthing along the bottom of the floorpan.

As above, the one in the ad is deffo not a factory soft top.
A proper original one would be worth quite a bit more than 2.5K
