Classic Cars We Wouldn’t Touch With a 10-Foot Pole

Dodge Dakota Convertible

The Dakota completely changed the pickup truck market when it was introduced and not because it was a great truck, but because it was the first midsize truck. But there were also a few special editions of the Dakota, such as the Dakota Convertible. The Dakota convertible was a special edition truck built by a coach builder. You’ll never see a convertible truck from the factory again and the Dakota was one of a kind concept in that regard (via Hagerty).

The Dakota Sport was a very cheaply built truck, the convertible top didn’t last very long and the performance was lackluster. There was no V8 engine option, as there was with the other trucks. The concept of a convertible pickup truck was cool, but nothing that we’d recommend tracking down as a classic.
