I'm pretty sure this means it got swapped at some time. It could even have 
happened at the dealer sometime when 2 cars were being worked on side by side. 
Not only did fastbacks not get the strap, there was no anchor point for the 
strap and the padding on top of the cover didn't have the little indent on the 
rear edge for where the strap would emerge nor the "hole" in the padding for 
the hook to recess.
