Also check the ground wire on the engine. I had mine come loose on my 2000 viper and the steal braided oil lines became electrified and melted the rubber inside causing them to leak. Sounds funny but It's happened to quite a few people.
There's an 00 steel grey no stripes in Mt. Vernon, WA at a dealer. Asking 37... something. Check Auto Trader and/or Craigslist Seattle. It has a couple paint swirls, etc... but overall appears bone stock and in decent condition. The paint blemishes may be buffed out? They were asking a lot more...
Gosh parting out? I've heard this often... I have a feeling if this were some preproduction corvette or comaro there would be a substantial movement to try and figure out a way to stop this. Geez they only made what less than 2000 in full production of those in 96? How many preproduction? It's...

This was on my local news last night
Anything anyone can do? 354miles! They got a few things wrong in the story, but it appears to be a preproduction 1996 GTS in museum quality.
My 2000 rt/10 did the exact same thing when the hood wouldn't totally latch correctly. It only has happened a couple of times and never on my 97 gts. In my case was a simple open and re-shut firmly. You may have a bigger problem than I with that front latch... good luck and keep us posted
If they replaced the steel braided oil cooler lines then you probably have a bad ground. Mine leaked because the electrical system was using the braided lines when the ground contact was compromised.. it must have melted the rubber in the lines with the heat. Went through two lines before I...
Yeah I think the seatbelt was a major factor along with the door breaking...
Yeah, it runs great and drives. Motor/tranny/rear end/brakes/susp/radiator look good. All it may need mechanically is a new electric fan and air filters. Looks like the hood braces took them out. Not sure how well...
No after market roll bar. I can see a steel "roll bar" in the roof section. Interesting enough it looks like the driver door almost broke in half from my body impact on it. It appears this allowed my upper body to stick out of the car during the rolls. It's very scary... I hadn't seen the car in...
Ha ha ha. I like JonB's story... Yeah, it still runs and drives... It still sounds really good...sadly. I was pretty ticked off at the copart guys when they decided it was a special jungle gym to jump on for rides! Some people just amaze me... I have no memory of the accident. Control was lost...
It's been a tough ordeal to go through... I am definitely buying another soon. It is such a crying shame to see my baby is such bad shape. After a long recovery from head trauma, broken neck, broken back, and most of my ribs among other injuries. It's time for some closure. I decided to send her...
