Paint Scheme Opinions?
Too cartoonish and disjointed. I'd lose it, especially if the above info is correct........and add that silver stripe.- steel snake

B&W in West Reno
Rumor has it that there's a B&W in West Reno. If you're out there, chime in, we'd like to have you join our little group when we get together. Just a casual meet and greet for coffee; weather and smoke permitting. You'd make it 4 of us. SS- steel snake

Seat reclining mechanism advice needed
Without having the seat in front of me I couldn't tell you much either. I'm pretty confident the seat adjustment is not a friction assembly. I would guess it would have to be holes or slots something falls into and is lifted out by the adjuster. That mechanism is not allowing the 2 parts to fall...- steel snake

Why are 1997 RT-10's hard to find/none for sale??
The dynamics of the Viper market are changing. That's another reason the B/W's are disappearing. People are stashing them. Even just a year ago you could find a nice one for $60k+. Not no more. Carney's Viper book doesn't feature a B&W on the cover by accident. One of the greatest Viper shots...- steel snake

Gen II Airbox
Check X2 Builders on eBay motors or, since it's on the bottom, just cover hole with a suitable patch, secure with pop-rivets and RTV.- steel snake

gas pedal fix
Hello, Recently came out to the garage to vacuum the left side carpet and my gas pedal is laying on the floor along with the pin and its spring. Imagine my surprise. The pin is pressed into the end of the gas pedal assembly. If the pin is on the floor there's a possibility the fit has changed...- steel snake

Close-out panel fix
Was going to post finished pix, but not much to see besides a black trunk interior. A lot of little adjustments and some failed jack nuts to replace (a pain), but it's done and I don't regret my decision. Later, SS- steel snake

Fixing Viper flaws II
Re my 3rd project: I ended up titling it "Gas Tank Close-out Fix". It got complicated, but doable. I may add to that post just to show how it all turned out.- steel snake

Close-out panel fix
That may be so. I've decided not to pursue this post any further. There are too many little details necessary to make it all come together. I enjoy a challenge, but I think it's not a project most people want to bother with. Ultimately it will come together and my panel with come out easily. In...- steel snake

Close-out panel fix
Ok, here goes. This is a show and tell of the panel removal. The last installment will be the finished project with pix. When you start the removal begin at the bottom of the panel. Take everything out including the tool kit. Protect the bumper with a furney pad as shown and one for your knees...- steel snake

Close-out panel fix
Thx Mark, The essence of my project is to make the panel easily removable. RTV makes a good seal, but hard to break. Plain old weather stripping will provide enuf weather protection there and would let the panel come off easily. U-nuts and m-5 bolts will pull everything as tite as you dare. We...- steel snake

Close-out panel fix
Any of you that have taken out this panel have any tricks to deal with the RTV/glue that is sealing panel to the body? I thot the rivets were tuff, but cutting threw that stuff is a b*tch. Actually the rivets were pretty easy except for the top 4. When I finally get the panel off I may just go...- steel snake

Close-out panel fix
Thx Dan for the conformation. Drilling out the rivets IS a pain, but only painful once. I plan to use butyl windshield rubber or maybe blk RTV or.....just weather stripping from HD.- steel snake
