To give you an idea how well we went through the car , with tires and fluid changes, replacing some leaking gaskets, and a few other items we spent 4K, so no short cuts taken. Pretty common on a 14 year old car to have a few gaskets leaking a little, but most places just wipe them off or tighten...
Keep what Dan Cragin at the front of your mind, as there is really no other Viper Tech in the United States with as much experience as he has. He is not that far from you ( over in the LA area ) that it might even be a solid idea to drive over and have him install a full system for you...
Tough situation , because no matter what condition the car is in there is a buyer perception that high mileage Vipers are worth quite a bit less. It does not really matter if the individual states it is very well taken care of , etc. ,it will demand a much lower price , though this should creep...
Many of you knew that Paul Greaser ( KC Region) passed away a few years back and his Viper recently found it's way to us. We redid all the fluids, fixed a few minor items and put on a brand new set of Michelin Super Sports. Just Sale Priced the car at $54,697 and for someone wanting a rare Coupe...
Correct post on the shocks , Konis were only on the 1999 and early 2000 ACRs. Also the car is not a stripe delete, it was just never ordered with Stripes. Great color and I commend you for changing the fluids as so many ignore this and sometimes with low mileage cars they could have been in the...
There is a point where when issues continue it is time to spend the funds to let a Master Tech find the cause. With a 22 year old car there could be a myriad of issues, but spending 20K for another motor , rebuild ,etc. is at the other end of the spectrum of not getting a fix and exact...
I don't know that I would continue to put a ton of effort into who did the interior as it is not likely to be a benefit to most collectors/buyers in the future. I would not see it as a reason to pay more , so why not just decide if you like it and move forward. I would use the seats as a Sales...
What tires are on the front and how old. Understand you have all the parts , but in most cases there have been things cut and getting someone to redo the exhaust and put it back to original is often expensive , even with old parts. Good luck selling , and it is still considered a Canadian car...
No offense, but many US States will require cats,etc. to be able to meet emissions, and the cost to redo the system is not inexpensive. Folks will want to know why only rear tires, as well as the age and whether the same brand are on the front. You may be better off selling in Canada , as Snakes...
Thanks, and I need to change over my title , and boy is it a long one now, ha,ha.

We have 19 Stores so I can help friends and old customers at any of them, though of course I am partial to the FCA brands -- we have...
Boy do I agree that time flies ...................
It helped that Bob W and I were both Viper sickos ourselves , and then we hired old friend Mark Jorgensen who got one himself and totally understood the Snake sickness. He is the GM of our new Bentley Store , now.
We did Woodhouse-ize it as the tires had tons of tread , but.....................were on the car since before the Revolutionary War! New Michelins installed all the way around, fluids checked and replaced as needed ( oil changed so it would be fresh for the new owner) . You can find it on our...
