    Who'll be 1st to put Falconer in Viper?

    People here like their Vipers and what they are, dropping a $65k (illegal to use on the highway btw) chevy motor into one is just a boring waste of time. With $65k you can get more power and provenance just upgrading the stock V10, and depending on the builder, actually increase the value...

    HELP HELP HELP!!!

    Also remember, "New" does not mean "Not Broken." I just went through four brand new starters on my Excursion before i got one that could crank the engine. Id recheck the "new" stuff just to be sure, focusing on whether you have fuel pressure. It could be something as simple as a clogged fuel...

    I have 94 rt/10. 8,330 miles Has upgrades, would like to know Its value.

    You are selling at a real lull in the Viper Market. Without some MUCH better pics, especially of the front end damage, and clarification on Title status youre basically selling a parts car. A nice, running 94 floats around $40k these days - Minus $5k for bad title, Minus $5k for sitting so...

    Insurance

    This doesnt surprise me... When i had Nationwide, anyone was allowed to drive it, but there was no agreed upon value and my monthly rate was just under $400. Collector Polices tend to be horrifically limited - my current policy through PHLY allows me unlimited miles, but i need a daily insured...

    Inherited a 94 Viper want to sell I don’t know anything about them.

    Honestly, the prices are all over the board with Gen1s. If you are looking for top dollar these days youre going to have to learn quite a bit about the car, market it, and be prepared for a VERY particular type of clientele... If you just want a quick sale, your best bet is (like mentioned...

    Battery Issue

    What is your definition of "lasted long" and what exactly was the reason given for the failure of the battery itself? Viper engine management computers are known for parasitic draws that will kill even the best batteries over a few years if its not driven regularly (as in more than once a...

    Insurance Question for the Group:

    State Farm is an [*******] of an insurer, i wouldnt trust them to insure my pressure washer... that being said you need to find out what the arrangements of the collector policy is before you sign anything. Like others have already said, most collector policies have stipulations regarding...

    I got scamed

    Please tell me you paid with Paypal Services, if so i would begin the process of disputing it ASAP... Im sorry, but there is so much of this going on now that you really need to deal with known sources, or in person these days. I hope you get your money back...

    MD New Viper Owner

    Hennessy cars are notoriously poorly built, especially Vipers. My first suggestion is to get it to Tator, Havik, or Sessions (the 3 closest to MD,) or some other Viper Guru to do a FULL inspection. There is a 70/30 chance its not the "spec" you think it is, and its something you need to be...

    Advice needed - fix or sell as is?

    Six one way, half dozen the other. "Not running" you will take a MASSIVE hit up front, no question. Nobody pays full price for a car without knowing if the engine needs replacement, or if it even drives. Even as a running project, youre looking at $10k+ higher asking price. The flip side is...

    Honest feedback on this wing choice

    Im a huge wing fan, but im gonna say No. That doesnt compliment the lines of the convertible or stock suspension - gives me the feel of a FnF leftover part, or Keystone Special than a serious performance enhancement. Sorry.

    Check out this Viper!

    I dont begrudge anyone doing anything they want with their own car. But im not even going to waste the time clicking the link because, regardless of opinion, just acknowledging it gives him a paycheck. No such thing as bad publicity in the era of social media.
