    I stumbled across this forum by typing in the wrong information to another Challenger forum. Had no idea this one existed. I own a 2010 R/T Classic in Furious Fuchsia. Just put a Hellcat hood on it, so I have a stock R/T hood for sale ($400). I live in the metro Detroit area. My current plans for my raid are to make it into a convertible. That process will start next week by me driving it down to Florida to Drop Top Customs. I have seen some photos of others who have done this. it is expensive, but what are ya gonna do if you want a challenger convertible? I owned a 1971 Panther Pink / Black 440 convertible and won the Mopar nationals in 2000 bracket racing. That was my 15 minutes of fame. :)

    Hi everyone. Hope this is a good forum to post up progress on making a challenger into a convertible.

    Droptop does some amazing work for the convertible switch, but that $16,000 hurts my wallet....
