There's a Swallow brochure in the Archive which illustrates the 'Saloon Head' version:

The description includes: ... supplied with Saloon Head rigidly fixed, but quickly detachable, so that it may be readily interchangeable with the Cape Hood... and an artistically-designed electric light with tumbler switch.
I wonder what sort of electrical connection was provided to enable the roof to be removed?
Good to know there's at least one survivor out there, I've never seen one.
