Convertible models based on four-door sedans never really caught up with mainstream consumers for a number of reasons, some of which have to do with aesthetic and others with practical reasons, but the smaller the niche, the better for the tuning industry that always jumps in to cover these special segments.

Drop Top Customs (DTC) is one such company, and as it name suggests, it specializes in transforming hardtop models into convertibles like the Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee featured in these photos.

While most tuners create these cars on a custom-order basis, DTC says it will build a limited production of 13 examples of the 6.4-liter V8 Hemi-powered sedan that has its metal top replaced with a soft top that matches the color of the Super Bee stripes.

No word on pricing, but we will tell that a regular, hardtop 2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee starts at $42,995.
