I have to disagree here.
The shown convertible is a convertible kit from "Speedster"
so it is not really "custom", I had a car like this ( also a Speedster )
for my marrigage 5 years ago :

Sure it is much work and effort to built a Speedster convertible, but 
a "Speedster" kit is still only a copy with lower quality material
and some flaws in design. You can even see this in the pictures, look at the
textile roof of this violet Speedster convertible for example...

IMHO , much work, much effort and much money is no guarantee for 
creating a nice car in the end - but taste varies of course.....
