Despite the fact that Plymouth had the Barracuda, the first pony car model introduced two weeks before the Ford Mustang, its stablemate Dodge didn’t enter the segment until 1970. The Challenger immediately got the full firepower of Mopar’s engines. Buyers could get a powerful 383 V8, a hefty 440, and the famous 426 Hemi (via SCM).

Since the Challenger was an actual muscle car, the majority of sold examples were coupes. But the convertible was also available. In 1970, Dodge produced only nine convertible Challengers, with the Hemi making this model one of the rarest and most powerful muscle car convertibles built in those golden years.
