Here in the North East, I run one as well. our roads suck and swear by the guard!!
PS, mine is painted the same as the body and stripe color (B/w). Cant even notice it....
.160 amps is not a big draw. Is it possible the Radio Memory for clock and pre-sets normally takes that? Has someone else on this thread done the same test as you are doing to make sure this is not normal? I just want to make sure you are going down the right path!!! I have a 96 manual so its...
OK, I looked back in the thread and see its fuse 13. Did you try removing this fused when the car sits to make sure this is the fuse / problem area? You don't want to chase a phantom.
I have not read through all the post but if it were me, I would get back to basics and start disconnecting fusses and relays one at a time. Once you determine the circuit causing the issue, look at a wiring diagram ( I have one) and find out what’s on it…

Point well made about the 92’… but in my opinion, 20 years is not old enough. When I am speaking, I am thinking 40 years old… I look at 60’s and very early 70’s cars and man, I wish I had some of mine back!!! The prices although “soft now” will even go higher on these cars when this Damn Economy...
I'm not going to get anything for my car... Chances are, it will never be for sale.... In my lifetime anyways. So your car fetched way more than mine ever will...
To some people having the first year may matter (like myself) but others could care less (such as yourself) In my opinion, it may matter more as these cars
get older but time will tell. looking at history, a 63 split window Corvette is more desirable today that a 64 non split… That stripe...
You may be right about the money, I have no idea because I had tunnel vision when I was looking…
My kid is going to Berklee, he can fend for himself, LOL….
Don’t blame you on bowing out…
Good Luck and health…

Morning Jon,
In my case, before I was a 96 owner I didn’t care if it was a 96 or a 97 but after sitting down and thinking about it, I wanted the first year, totally original B/W GTS and not the second. To me its equivalent to buying a 64 ½ mustang and not a 65… I guess what I am saying is I...
Let me make myself clear.. I never said what Jon's Viper should sell for or what it’s worth… I
Nearly stated that I believe the car will go up in time….
I stated the reasons why I purchased my car
I stated I don’t give a rat’s ass about heat and where it blows from and the sills getting a bit...
Slowfrc,
Thanks for taking time to write your point of view. Please don’t take this the wrong way. I have a Son your age and he may agree with what you’re saying but then again, maybe not (I think not because I look at his face when he hops in my car).
I am 50, my first car was my white 66...
Hmmm… I am going to different shows than you are. I live in Mass and there is one Hugh show here every other Thursdays (2500 + cars show up on a regular basis) that are 90% Muscle / Classics I also hit up other shows and see the same thing (Thank god). … I think I would take the gas pipe if I...
Jon, do you think the Niche is smaller because its directly related to the economy and the Niche will become larger when it come back around? I am a total newbee when it comes to these cars and you have far more experience. When it comes to60's Muscle cars however, forget it, I was born with a...
Slowfrc, I don’t agree. Go to any car show and the Stangs outnumber the Vipers 10 fold. Allot more Stangs were built than the Viper. I can remember back to the Mustang craze in the 80’s when they were pulling Stangs out of the Junk yard to fix them up and sell, Literally.
I also don’t agree with...
Hi Slither, I love your passion about the Viper. Mine is just as strong as yours and has been since I was a young lad and set my eyes on the first 92 I saw in a dealership. I have talked about nothing more than the Viper until I purchased one, just ask my wife and friends..
As for your theory...
I have a 66 convertible with 56,000 miles and a 66 Hard Top with 25,000 miles, 100% original. I also have a 69 Corvette Roadster (Convertible with Hardtop) with 90,000. all the cars I have owned since High School. I tend to keep my cars, my Viper is going nowhere... The Viper is car #33. GT...
I am not sure I agree 100% with that analogy…. Take for instance a 67 Shelby Mustang GT 500. That car falls under that analogy (less the burning and slower than the Viper) and look at what they are going for!!! Being the owner of 2 1966 mustangs, Nostalgia has something to do with it as well...
I hope you don’t mind that I don’t join your procession, I have a car already but it sound like yours is beautiful and well cared for.
Good luck with sale!!!
As a very recent buyer of a 96 B/W, the only reason he got close to what he wanted is because I wanted a 96 B/W and a 96 B/W only…. In my case it was supply in demand… In order for our cars to be worth more, there will have to be a line of people wanting to buy them.. It’s allot like houses… I...
