    Mid-80s Corvette w/Gen I Viper Body = WTF?

    Did you see this mid-80s Corvette with a Gen I Viper "body Kit" for sale. That sure is a bunch of work for very little payoff: https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/enthusiasts/at-dollar8000-is-this-vipervette-the-mega-merger-we-deserve-or-simply-the-one-we-need/ar-BB12YEVi?ocid=spartanntp

    John Phillips of Car & Driver Just Plain Throws Down on Vipers

    I have read a lot of hash words written about the Viper over the years, but John Phillips just goes off in the March 2016 Car & Driver. From inception to the Gen V, he disrespects the car: http://www.caranddriver.com/columns/the-ultimate-antivenom-the-vipers-dying-and-i-wont-miss-it-column

    Has anyone heard of any blockbuster technology to address side-sill heat?

    I recall hearing some generic mention of addressing firewall heat transfer from the engine to the cabin on the Gen V, but is there any news of blockbuster technology regarding this and side-sill heat issues? As an aside, has anyone spent serious time in a Ferrari 599? Does it roast the cabin also?

    Where in the heck does this ridiculous idea that a Viper cannot handle come from?

    I sold my Viper a while ago, but reading all the articles about the new Gen V I cannot help but become furious at the continuous restating of this bizarre idea that Vipers cannot turn corners. WHERE DID THIS IDEA COME FROM? Was there an article in some early magazine that was somehow quoted and...

    Gen V-based Factory Road Race Team? Suggested by Autoweek:

    In the February 20, 2012 Autoweek, in the article covering the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the following quote appears where they are talking about the GT field: "The rest of the GT class was a mix of Mazda RX-8s, in their final year of factory-backed competition, some chevrolet Camaros and a...

    Classifieds scam alert: Adam Torenden is not a real buyer

    Received some decent looking e-mails from a buyer named Adam Torenden. Sounded pretty good but I noticed the first message came in at 3:00 am which made me think UK/Western EU/Africa. Sent some pics and got an e-mail back saying he was in England and talking about sending checks and test driving...

    Ignition key blank questions - what is OEM & why so much!

    1) why is a blank key without fob $125 from Dodge! Ouch. 2) I have only ever had one key and it does not look like this $43 key for sale on e-bay. What did the keys you got with your car when you bought it new in 1998 look like? My key has a logo like below, but is shaped like the profile...

    Any suggests for escrow service to sell Viper to a European?

    Due to Gary Almond it looks like getting the car to Europe physically is easy, and perhaps a facilitating buyer would wire money prior to pick-up and make it very easy, but any ideas on some sort of escrow service that could be used to facilitate the deal? I know someone who is a famous car...

    Who runs the classifieds? How do I extend a current ad?

    I want to extend my advertisement: Solid Silver 98 GTS - ViperClub Classifieds but cannot figure out how to do it. Am I stuck placing a new ad when it runs out (which at least would "bump" it to the classifieds home page so would not be horrible), or can I extend a current ad? PhoenixGTS

    My Solid Silver 98 GTS is now in the classifieds.

    No boost but tasty modifications well done. Here is a link to the ad: Solid Silver 98 GTS - ViperClub Classifieds Had the car for six years and gotten it to a great place. Now I am trying to adjust my career and having additional $$$ in the bank is very comforting.

    Any land mines removing the driveshaft in Gen II?

    I have a service manual but haven't checked it out regarding driveshaft removal yet. I'm thinking once the plate is off it should be straightforward. Are there any obstructions I am not remembering? Belanger exhaust rear half maybe?
