eBay watch: Dodge Challenger widebody convertible by West Coast Customs

Dodge may have ruled out building a convertible version of its Challenger muscle car but if you’re determined enough to purchase one then there are a score of vehicle customizers across the country willing to serve your needs, for the correct price. One such customizer is California’s West Coast Customs (WCC), the same company made famous on the original MTV Pimp my ride series.


The custom Challenger was originally commissioned by Joshua 'Chop' Tobin from Las Vegas car dealership Towbin Dodge. It is based on the mid-level R/T model and includes a custom widebody kit in addition to the convertible conversion.


It wouldn’t be a true WCC car without some modification of the interior, and as such the Challenger was given a complete overhaul inside, with contrasting black and white leather trim and a premium Polk stereo system. Other modifications to the car include 26in Asanti wheels, a sports exhaust system, blacked out tail lamps, and a discrete rear spoiler.


The eBay auction has now come to an end, but considering the highest bid of $50,200 didn’t meet the reserve anyone interested in the car will likely be still able to purchase it.

2009 models lead NHTSA's latest recalls, including Mazda6, Town & Country, Ranger

Mazda will call back some 29,000 examples of its slippery new Mazda6 sedan for a potential door handle fault that could cause them to open without warning. According to Automotive News, the outside handle can cause the door to open as a result of an "inconsistent dimension combination" between the bracket and the handle (read: they don't line up properly).

The fix will involve replacing any/all door handles and/or brackets if they are found to be defective.
