    Found some old pics of my car

    You know, there's just no getting around the classic good looks and sex appeal of a GTS.

    Overall Ride Quality -- Gen I vs Gen II

    My '01 GTS is more comfortable on the road than my '05 Avalnace (fully loaded) and my wife's '09 Cadillac CTS. My Viper isn't a cushy ride, but it's very solid and more fun per mile than anything I've ever driven. And, for what it's worth, I'm WELL past my mid-life crisis thing ... well, some...

    Adam's detailing for Dummies

    I used blue painters tape on all the emblems and rubber/vinyl trim. Didn't bother with the lights or seams as I wanted to work the paint right up the edges. I removed the tape after waxing and did the touch-up waxing by hand. I'm still really happy with the results after a number of foam...

    Clear Side Markers

    I was just in touch with Andy (Bat) this week and he does have the overlays for the sidemarkers @ $15 a set. The email above is the best way to get in touch with him. KLEARZ does have the clear lens in stock @$45 + $15 shipping. Just ordered some from Jason this morning.

    2010 SSG Viper ACR arrival.

    The wife slid in like that car was MADE for her! I think you're going to loose this Snake to 'the gentler side'. Besides, she looks WAY better in it!!!

    Custom viper seen near SEMA

    When I attempted the link, McAfee stopped me and warned of the site trying to utilize a known security breach in Windows. Just thought I would let you guys know. I've been using some pretty stiff security stuff on my machine and haven't had a virus problem in over a year ... just sayin'.

    Gen 2 Hood Louvers in Classifieds

    For those of you that haven't seen Dave's car in a while, the louvers aren't WHITE any more!:omg: I think Dave is just getting a little settled in his ways and setting his car up to be a little more classy rather than flashy. Looks much better with the red louvers.:rolaugh:

    Carbon Fibre side sills for gen 1?

    Haven't heard back from him yet. :mad: I may cruise over to the track today and see why he hasn't responded.

    Sagging pockets

    My '01 has sagging head liner pockets. I've seen this on almost every Gen II that I've seen, so I'm wondering if anyone has tried repairing the worn out elastic?:dunno: Replacing with new sounds like a lot of work and/or cost ... has anyone tried hand sewing a strip of fresh black elastic to...

    How do you say "No" Politely

    I just tell them that it's more powerful and dangerous than they realize and I value their friendship too much to risk it. For my Son, the answer was H*LL NO! Only DarkShadow on the board (same year and model of Viper) will get the keys when he asks. He's ridden my bikes and has always been...

    Adam's detailing for Dummies

    As promised, here are the steps that I took with minor mods as advised by Junkman and others. The list is basically the same with a few improvements. I'll highlight additions with color. 1. Wash car (two bucket method) Use dish washing detergent, not car wash. Junkman suggests Dawn, but I...

    Adam's detailing for Dummies

    For what it's worth, I'm going to post up a 'follow up' with the outline that I used with Junkman's help. I'm sure that there are many ways to approach this, but some of us just need to know that even a beginner can do it with the correct mentoring. I hope my questions (as novice as they may...

    Adam's detailing for Dummies

    If this shows up as a multiple post, I'm sorry. I've tried a few times with nothing showing up!:dunno: This is my '01 GTS after applying Junkman's principles for the first time. NEVER used a DA polisher or really cleaned up the paint on a car before.

    Snipers for Vipers

    Will they mount up that 50 cal. and install cross-hairs on your windshield? No more PESKY people in the passing lane that refuse to move over if I had THAT set up.

    Finally upgraded the GTS - self installed it too!

    Personnally, I llike having a place to put a drink when you're on the road for many hours. Sometimes, having the caffiene an arm's reach away comes in handy. Doesn't mean I want a holder there ALL the time, but I think that cup holder is a temporary 'slide in' between the seat and the console...

    Monthly VCA Meeting at Grapevine Dodge

    My Sapphire/Silver GTS is almost finished with my polish/wax treatment, but it won't be ready tomorrow due to some dental work that I had to have done today.:mad: I know it's not optimal, but would it help to have PEOPLE show up even if we can't bring our Snake?:dunno: HEY, POST UP DETAILS...
