    You know it's hot in the midwest when this happens!

    Good times! Came out to the parking lot to find this today... Thought it had been broken into at first until I saw the problem....10 year old Dodge window adhesive is no competition for the St. Louis heat! So at this point I was kicking myself for replacing the stupid "hatch shocks"...

    2002 gts stereo upgrade complete: Pics & write-up

    More pictures to come, but first the details... My goal with this installation was to create a great sound system upgrade while not leaving much in the way of visible modifications. (i.e. only the trained "Viper eye" could tell that anything had been changed.) I didn't want to fill the hatch...

    Passenger Side Floorboard Rattle - 2002 GTS

    After picking up my new-to-me 2002 GTS with 5400 miles on it, I've noticed a little rattle which seems to come from the passenger side floorboard/firewall. It only occurs intermittently, seems to change with RPM and only while the car is moving. The best way I can describe it is that it sounds...

    Some wheel well detailing: 2002 Dodge Viper GTS

    Most of the clean-up was done with Adam's Undercarriage Spray. As it turns out, the upper and lower control arms are actually silver instead of black! Wow, they sure build up A LOT of black crud on them in a short amount of time! The car only has 6900 miles on it! I forgot to snap any...
