Great looking car. Now I know what mine will look like. I hope my paint job looks as good. Fat Albert did you well Frank!

Any chance you can give me the dimensions of the width of the stripes and how much space is in between the stripes starting at the top of the nose of the car and at the bottom of the front fascia? I have a spare front fascia that I wanted to paint black with silver stripes just like your car.

Are your stripes painted exactly the same dimensions as the factory painted stripes?

Tony, thank you once again for posting my photos.

Fat Albert did a marvelous job on the car, especially considering the condition in which the panels were received. His shop has a total of 345 hours into body panel, preparation and painting. It's a shame this car doesn't go straight to a museum with zero miles on it.

If there is no rain in the forecast, I will probably make the trek up to Thunderhill to join up with the other half dozen Comp Coupe owners planning to attend. I can't believe I'm going to race this thing.

It's only fair that I hold Fred Kinder personally responsible for the weather.

Thast has to be among the most awesome cars I have ever seen, and (in my opinion) the best looking Viper I have ever seen! Congratulations!!

Pardon me for being a bit dumb about the car, but are these CC's not street legal?

Frank,

My heart is literally racing just looking at the picture of you Comp Coupe. That is one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen. Why oh why, wont DC make us a street coupe?

Soooooo, you're back on track? Last I heard the deal was dumped.

Holy back in time batman!

LOL, look at my above reply chuck. I didn't know a damn thing about CCs then. I almost want to edit my reply.

If that's Frank Parise's car then I do believe that car is no longer that color anymore. It was purchased by Muzzy Racing and is now a World Challenge car in Blue and grey stripes. The car was at Thunderhill this past month and looks great :) Has a differnt side exhaust and wing on the back.

My car is still the same as you see in the photo. Muzzy purchased Phil De La O's CC which was painted the same color as mine. Muzzy painted Phil's car blue and that's what you saw at Thunderhill.

Oops, my mistake. Thanks for the clarification :)
