    GEN V Viper picture at VOI 11....

    When Ralph said, "Please do not take any pictures, I'm asking for your respect." (I paraphrase) It was one of the most impressssssive things I have ever seen an executive do. Trust and respect are something that is harder and harder to find these days. It is quite a statement that with...

    Next Gen Viper scrapped? Current Gen to be built to 2011

    Chris is spot on about the corporate AVERAGE fuel economy, it goes without saying that our V-10 will never be a high mileage engine, and it's impact on Chrysler's CAFE is zip. One thing that has not been mentioned here is emissions. The last engine revision stretched the envelope using the...

    Next Gen Viper scrapped? Current Gen to be built to 2011

    The Next Generation Viper is certainly going to have a tough "row-to-hoe". Sadly, Herb's retirement may say more than anything. VOI.10(?) will have to push all the right buttons, at a minimal cost to Cerberus, to help the Vipers case as we've lost many of our high level corporate patrons to...

    Paint is finally going on......

    [SIZE=4] I'll be doing the electrical after I carry her home. Instructions will follow. I am searching for the "Easy circuit" adder right now, can't remember where I saw it, but it basically plugs into the fuse socket in place of a fuse, replaces the fuse, and provides another fused circuit...

    Paint is finally going on......

    Thanks, The "Silver" is actually "Cashmere", sort of hard to explain, but it is a very heavy metallic color that has a beige tint to it. My wife the artist says it's a "complimentary color" to the orange, she picked the stripe color. Here is "Cut and paste" from the first post in the thread...

    Paint is finally going on......

    I have seen Gen II doors go on Gen I cars W/O using the Gen II windshield surround. Chris from Viper Car Parts in AZ did a car that way, the downside is that it takes a boatload of weatherstripping at the front edge and rear edges to halfway seal....... it ended up looking "added on" to me. It...

    Paint is finally going on......

    Janni Thanks for the info. I mainly did not want the driving lights. Maybe I'll just get the screened round black "light replacement covers" from Snake Oyl to fill in the holes, and not bother with the plumbing. I looked around on their site last night for them, but did not find them...

    Paint is finally going on......

    Well, It's the home stretch, weather is a A-OK, and the fascia's are painted! With luck, I'll go pick up the Brazen Serpant in a few weekends (put new brakes on the trailer last weekend, and new tires on the "tow-truck :) )..... Ed filled in the holes for the lens since I plan on installing...

    Paint is finally going on......

    Re: Last Body Parts in Paint.... Waiting for the weather to warm up enough for the last two major parts to be painted, the front and rear fascia's. I have to finish stripping and repairing the side sills and send them to Ed as well, but they should pretty straight forward to paint.

    2 Sincere Apologies

    Likely on the nose.... in our town a new post office was built, the square footage was 5 below the max the PO leases, any bigger and the Gov would have had to use the tax payers money effciently :( Gotta love the gov, at least a Viper enthusiast is getting some of my tax money.... LOL

    Sell the '01, buy a medium milage '96 Or if that is still above the Corvette budget, a Gen I RT/10, the true classic collectible and drivable Viper ;)
