Attn Convertable Owners
« on: March 30, 2012 - 08:18:57 PM »
Hello fellow E-Body fanatics,

We have been in extensive talks with our plastics manufacturing partner, and have ironed out the details on getting the convertible panels into your hands.
We have also worked out a deal to bring ALL panel colors to the market. Yes, that means you will be able to get your panels in the currently offered Black, Red, White, and Blue along with the Green, Tan, and Burnt Orange shades you have been asking for.

In order to get these made at this time we will need to pre-sell 100 Cuda and 100 Challenger Convertible Rear Panels sets. This means real orders with money backing them.

A Group Buy will be setup to start on April 1, 2012, to run through June 30, 2012.
We will be accepting credit card information and personal checks during this timeframe. No cards will be processed, or checks deposited until the 100 Cuda and 100 Challenger set minimums are reached.
Once the minimum number of orders has been reached production on the new panels will begin. There should be a three to six month turnaround on the panels at that point.
If the minimum quantities are not meet during this time frame all credit card information and any checks received will be destroyed. We would then hold off on the panels, and try again at a later time.


1970-74 Cuda/Challenger Rear Convertible Panel Group Buy Details:
Black Rear Convertible Panel Sets - $750
For any other color add $150 for a total of $900 per set
Shipping is FREE in the Continental US, and $45 (per set) for anywhere else.

Metro Parts Company
2118 Broxton Road
Douglas GA 31533
Phone912)383-0172


The item pricing listed above will only be good during the Group-Buy period.
The retail base price on the rear convertible panels after the initial group-buy will be set at $850 plus shipping.

I assume Roseville is aware of this , I think Hemi Ken was looking also  :dunno:

Wow it is tough to throw out money on something that you have no idea if the quality will meet your standards.   Don't get me wrong . . . I think it's a great idea. . Just see some issues with the procedure.

As was said above I am just posting the info , no idea on the quality or availablility of the power window option .
 Having said that there is a very high ratio of power window converts built , all they would have to do is mark the back of the panel & leave it to you to cut the hole for power or manual windows .
 The rear 1/4 panels have to be one of the toughest parts to get as almost every set had speakers cut into them .
 I also agree it is a big chance to drop that kind of $$ on a part we have never even seen yet , while a few of us $$ is not an issue most of us have to be very careful with our $$ .

On the bright side, no one here has given a bad mark on the non convertible panels that metro offers.

These would have to be the same quality as the regular panels and dash's.

I wish I had a convertible.
