Back then those cars were usually stock vehicles that were torn down and rebuilt for the purpose of racing only. Usually from a wrecked or salvage titled Viper. It was not uncommon to spend north of 100K modifying them above the cost of the vehicle. Usually also selling the stock components that...
Re: Wind the clock forward 5 years, think there will be more used Gen 5 Vipers availa
