B/W GTS seen in Ft. Collins, CO.
Guys, it wasn't me, I haven't taken the '97 out for a drive since May. Damn gravel roads! :-)- Kens66

The best sports car in the World
Hey, it took me 5 years to save the money for mine -- just start saving, putting in any money you didn't expect to get (and therefore don't need)... It seemed like a dream when I started too. Having to wait definitely does make you appreciate it more. Good luck!- Kens66

Paint & Body Shops In Northern Colorado?
OK, so here's the promised follow-up... I would give Ozzie's a B- for the job they did. Here are the things that I was less than thrilled about: 1) We agreed up front that my wheels would be refinished instead of replaced. But, when they could not get anyone to refinish the wheels, they...- Kens66

Can't buy the heat shield inside the rocker panel???
Re: Can\'t buy the heat shield inside the rocker panel??? Are there any pictures that would help illustrate the steps involved in replacing the catalytic converters? It wasn't crystal clear to me whether cutting and/or welding are involved. I have a cat-back Corsa exhaust -- does that make...- Kens66

Where can you buy wheel straps?
ViperJay, thanks, that makes the choices pretty clear and (3) seems like the most elegant solution. Do you know of any supplier that sells the D-rings separately? My trailer is a Featherlite that is similar to one in Fred's picture. It's possible that mine is longer, but one definite...- Kens66

Can't buy the heat shield inside the rocker panel???
Re: Can\'t buy the heat shield inside the rocker panel??? Thanks for all the feedback! It sounds like sticking with the factory heat shield but moving to high-flow cats is the best answer. Are the factory cats welded on, or is replacing them easy? Can I replace *just* the cats, or does it...- Kens66

Can't buy the heat shield inside the rocker panel???
Can\'t buy the heat shield inside the rocker panel??? My '97 GTS is in the body shop taking care of some "minor" damage that happened in the hands of a moving company. The body shop discovered that the heat shield inside the passenger-side rocker panel is damaged (parts of it actually look...- Kens66

Where can you buy wheel straps?
Maybe I'm not visualizing it properly, but I'm pretty sure that no matter where I tie to on the car, the bottom of the front air dam is so low that it will be in heavy contact with a strap going to the D-ring. On my trailer the D-rings are maybe 4-5 feet in front of the car. Does that make sense?- Kens66

Where can you buy wheel straps?
OK, you guys convinced me, but it requires modifying the trailer a little bit. Right now the tie-down points are so far forward that anything attached to the frame would pull up (too) hard against the front fascia when tightened. Just to get the car home from the body shop I'll probably loop...- Kens66

Where can you buy wheel straps?
I have a trailer with tie-down points that are pretty far forward of the nose of my GTS. I believe wheel straps are the best way to tie the car down. If you have used wheel straps to secure your Viper (and liked them), where did you buy them? Thanks...- Kens66

Paint & Body Shops In Northern Colorado?
Yes, that is my car. Thanks everyone for the recommendations! Ozzie's was recommended by the guy who inspected the car's damage for the moving company. I probably should have evaluated more shops, but the car's been out of commission for 4 months now and I just wanted to get things moving...- Kens66

Paint & Body Shops In Northern Colorado?
Hello Everyone, I recently moved to Loveland, CO. The moving company moved my '97 GTS with 2600 miles on it, and they managed to bang it up pretty good. I need new wheels, and a couple of body panels need repainting. Has anyone had any especially good or bad experiences with body shops...- Kens66
