Coach Builders Ltd is best known for it's convertible conversions of the Chrysler 300 and Cadillac CTS, so after Dodge nixed any plans it had of building a Challenger drop top, they stepped right in to fill the void.
The Florida-based company will bring a customized soft-top Dodge Challenger SRT8 to SEMA, packing a Vortech supercharger good for 560 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque. In addition to the hydraulically powered acrylic polyester cloth roof (complete with sound and temperature insulation), the Challenger is dropped courtesy of a KW coil-over suspension over 22-inch Foose wheels coated in Nitto rubber.
The cost of the conversion, which also includes a heated glass rear window, matching headliner and a rear strut bar to shore up the chassis, is a whopping $16,000, making for a $58,000 hair dryer when rolled into the $41,695 base price of an SRT8. But for those looking to buy a drop top Challenger, it's the only way to go.
