AK47 Specifications (looking for the right AK)

Ok, I really honestly only signed up to this forum looking for somebody's help in finding a specific AK47 Assault Rifle...Obviously the one I'm looking for is 7.62 x 39 caliber..I plan on using a 75 round drum so that eliminates using a 10 round or so magazine...It's been so damn hard for me to find the right one...It has a folding stock, not the underfolder either...
In addition to that, 2 grips (not 1), and longer...to make it a whole lot easier I can put a picture in here http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/AK SAR 1 8 03.jpg ...if it works..Now just picture that except having the folding stock instead of the shoulder on the Rifle..2ndly, the color of the wood is perfect, but I'm looking for a grip right where the wood is shown in the picture to the right of the magazine.....
This is complicated, but I did my best in explaining and I'm not very good at giving directions or doing stuff like this
so anyone who can help, thanks

I don't think there is an official designation for such a configuration... you'd probably have to buy the parts seperately.
You also mention that it is longer... sounds like an RPK to me. An RPK with mods.
thanks
I have seen this AK Before (not on the internet)... You're right about me possibly having to buy additional accessories such as the grip and all...
If there is such a designation out there that anyone might know about, I'de appreciate your help
thanks
I believe the AK would have had to have been imported prior to 1990.
Although a lot of those folding stocks were sold over the years, it's still against the law to retrofit them to any post ban AK, no matter how many American made parts it has.
I'm not altogether sure that you can legally retrofit a pre ban fixed stock AK with a folding stock?
I'm not really altogether sure.. about it being illegal
I know for sure exactly what I'm looking for, only problem is WHERE to buy it. Gunbroker.com has practically every gun anybody can possibly own, but they don't got this...

My camera is somewheres around my house so when I find it I'll get the pic
But hey, thanks for the help guys...Aside from this SPECIFIC ak I'm looking for that "supposedly" doesn't exist (it does, except its very rare), I'll find ones similar to ones I'm talking about. The following picture is closest to what I can find in similarity to the AK47 I'm talking about http://www.gunbroker.com/auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=20768214 (although I don't like the actual looks)

Look at GB# 21147419. No folding stock but that could be added.

No offense meant but I believe your in error. The Romanian AK you reference is a post-ban import. Don't believe there is any legal way you can add a folding stock.
