    1/18 scale Vipers for sale

    Hi All, I've run out of space in my home office and I need to part ways with my 1:18 scale Viper collection. I focused on Bburago and also have the Autoart models. I have a bunch from Germany also. Many have original boxes, but definitely not all. From the pictures, you can see that I've...

I know that most of us in PA are not driving our Vipers right now, so let's look forward to the spring. If you know about any car shows, please post them. It will be great to meet...

    PA members going to VOI

    So, who is going to VOI from PA? I remember seeing a post/email/something from PaViper that mentioned driving down on Wednesday, but I can't find it. Thought I'd check in and see what the plans are. Is everyone already booked at the Embassy Suites? Any other hotel where PA members are staying?

    101 after signature blocks

    I noticed that anywhere someone is using a signature line/block, it shows "101" at the end. I did see one person's had "103". If you don't have a signature in a particular post, there is no strangeness. Any ideas what this is?

    My diecast collection

    Here is a snapshot of part of my collection. I am waiting for a particular shelving unit to come back in stock so I can display the rest in another part of my office. These are primarily ones that didn't come with boxes. My family bought me a 1:10 radio controlled SRT-10 for Father's Day.

    Classified notification email issue

    The new classified notification emails are much better than before. However, there are still a couple little issues to be cleaned up. The link to the actual ad, has a "br" at the end of the URL. I was thinking this is supposed to be <br />, but it doesn't seem like the right place for it. See...

    Cranberry Twp, PA

    I will be in Cranberry Twp from 5/19 - 5/22 for business. Anyone in this area interested in getting together for dinner? PM me if you are. Unfortunately with this lousy weather, I won't have the Viper. Not sure I could fit my equipment in there anyway. :)

    A trip to CVS

    I stopped at CVS for a candy bar and found these Kinsmart 1:36 scale Vipers. At $4.99 each, a good deal - but it was an expensive candy bar. ;) The white/blue I had from last year, but the others show a mfg date of 2/1/2011. Kinsmart 1:36 scale diecast - ViperClub Photo Gallery I also took...

    Calendar updates

    How do events get added to the VCA Calendar at National Calendar | Viper Club of America Calendar System Over the next several months, I only see events for Colorado, Gateway, and Minnesota regions. Is it the regional officers who can update this calendar or only someone from HQ? It would be...

    Viper Magazine

    I received my new Viper magazine today along with a nice calendar (good to see PA's own viper67 in there). The magazine is very nice quality and has some great content. I'm looking forward to the cover story about one of my favorite performers. What I didn't find though is the voting ballot...

    New carbon fiber background hides text

    Has anyone noticed that the new CF background makes some text very hard to find? Examples that I've run into: 1. Click on a person's username to View Public Profile. On their profile page, you can barely see their username and any tag they might have, i.e. VCA Member, etc. 2. Under the...

    Anyone near Clarence Creek, Ontario?

    I am interested in a set of wheels someone is selling in Clarence Creek, but he isn't really interested in working with someone remote. Is anyone in this area that could take a look at the wheels for me? Thanks.

    Classified ad email notifications

    The email notifications for new/updated classified ads have a rather strange format. They don't display correctly on a smartphone (at least not my iPhone). The html has the entire content within a nested table and in a single row/column (tr/td). Do we (VCA) have control over this or is it a...

    An unbelievable find...

    I'd like to make a public shout-out to Ricketts who remembered that I had a gold wheel GTS and sent me a PM. It turns out someone had a set of actual (unused) Chrysler, '97 gold front wheels for sale on ebay. They were shipped to me in the original Chrysler box with the actual part number...

    Harrisburg / Philly Auto Shows

    Anyone planning to attend either of these shows? I don't see any Dodge (or even Chrysler) cars on the list. They are listed on the floor plans for both events, but nothing about the cars. By the way, if you order tickets online for the Harrisburg show, you save $2 per ticket and receive a...

    Wheels and tires - '97 GTS

    I have one of the 7 gold-wheel GTS's. I bought it in October still dressed with the original PS2s. I'd like to get a "dummy set" of gold wheels so I can package/protect the OEMs for future resale. I am looking for the 5-spoke OEM wheels, painted sparkle gold (or a set of actual factory...

    Old tires question

    Okay, looking for advice. I've read plenty of threads so no need to beat me up here. I purchased my '97 GTS in October. It has the original tires. I was going to replace them straightaway, but the car will be garaged pretty much until spring. I didn't see a reason to put new tires on just to...

    Research help needed

    Since I have purchased one of the seven '97 GTS Gold Wheel cars, I've become a bit interested in where the others are. I am going to put together a website similar to the feviper registry.

    build info by VIN??

    While researching old threads here, it seems there is some way to get the original build information based on the VIN. Is this something only a select few can do, or is it something generally available? I found reference to a URL (http://www.viperclub.org/IVR/vin.html) that doesn't seem to...

    Are the classifieds working?

    Is there a problem with the classifieds section? The 1997 GTS category shows Last Ad Posted on Sept 27, but there is no ad from that date. The 2001 GTS category says Last Ad was Sept 29, but again no ad. Any ideas?
