    VOI.9: Las Vegas!

    It's that time again..... VOI! For info on past VOI's be sure to visit the VOI Experiences From the Past Forum. I'll start things by saying VOI is worth every penny of the event fee. The food is fantastic, lots of goodies, great access to folks from Chrysler and Team Viper, fun driving...

    I just want to know if I'm crazy

    Re: I just want to know if I\'m crazy When you ask the dealer if you can slide under the car to take pictures (and they say yes), you have them open the door so you can get the MDH, and you copy down the VIN too, then you'll know you are truly "Snakebit/Crazy"..... until then you're just an...

    Shekby edition viper...I smell B.S.

    Fittzgerald Dodge did indeed sell a number of "Shelby" Edition Vipers. Not done by Shelby, sars were made in Laconia NH, by Fitz. First ones were White/blue repaint, most were factory red/yellow cars to start. Fitz sold more yellow wheels than anyone! Had troubles with the white paint on...

    Coolant and purging air (again)

    Something else to keep in mind is that the hose running from the tank you "can see", to the tank you "cannot" see is not clamped on. On one of my cars the hose had cracked and come off the hidden tank. So rather than puking in the tank when hot, and sucking fluid back in when cool.... just got...

    Project Viper: On the Rack

    Oldie but a goodie frame rack. We chose him because he did his personal Viper on the rack, and it was way worse than mine when he started. I'll certainly PM you my fax, but I'm 99.9% he has all the frame dims. When I talked to him, he answered all the questions the same way as Fat Albert...

    Project Viper: On the Rack

    Red and yellow was already taken :2tu: The hood and doors are primed, sanded and ready for paint.... actually, the only panals not ready are the red rear fenders, and the hardtop, which happened to be silver, front and rear fascia's are ready as well. This was the point Ed was at when he...

    Coolant and purging air (again)

    The sequence is critical.... Squeeze hose.... bubbles will burp into fender top bottle (cap must be off, I'm guessing this is what you are callign the radiator cap)), and you will see it's level lower, fill it up a little, repeat (many times). When you get no more bubbles, make sure to do this...

    what is she really worth?

    $55K +/-, 24K miles is no issue here, as noted above, rare-desirable color, low production (53), in a LOWEST RT/10 production year (117), Smooth hood is the only time a smooth hood was on a Gen II (the mold had "expired") (OK, one '98 RT had a smooth hood, but that was an accident). Fun Fact...

    Project Viper: On the Rack

    I had hoped to have it home by now, but a series of unexpected items relating to the Gen II windshield surround have created quite a bit more work for Ed. Also, while fitting the body panels, it was discovered that there appears to be a slight "twist" in the frame, not enough to prevent...

    how much is it really worth?

    $55,000 +/- These come up for sale very rarely and sell fast because it is such a low RT/10 production year, a great/rare RT/10 color combo and the '97's RT/10's are the only Gen II's with "smoothie" hoods ('cept for one mistake in '98). I'd say this is right up there with the GT-2 Coupes as...

    As above, no. To be certified a Tech must attend a Viper Technicians Training Class. This class is everal days in length and covers service techniques that are unique to all Gen Vipers. Of course, some techs do not go back when a new Gen is introduced, so some are certified on only the Gen's...

    GEN 1 Window help

    V-Mania clear windows. I had a set on my '95, loved them so much I just left them on all the time. I like the clear ones because you cannot even tell they are on. www.vipermania.com/Windows.asp

    Somuch for an accident free car.

    Parking lots are ugly places. Hopefully TX is not a "No-Fault" insurance state, and the officer ticketed her for inattentive driving. The diminished value is a "for sure", you may need letters from a few reputable sources to proove it. Dealers that sell a lot of Vipers can be a good source...

    i'm sick of haters!

    Re: i\'m sick of haters! Remember, when they say "hater" things about your Viper, they are really "lovin'" it (because they wish they were driving it, not you :) ). They would not say anything if they really hated it. Side note... I would think Clubbin' and Vipers would not mix well... or...

    Need a little help

    Good advice, just work though one item at a time with the meter. Sort of like a treasure hunt :) Plus, it's a good excuse to buy a new tool!

    He guys, I'm gonna be sporting 19/20" wheels(PICS). Few questions..

    Re: He guys, I\'m gonna be sporting 19/20\" wheels(PICS). Few questions.. Trail. Variant would be good if they had left and right side so they did not look like they were going "backwards" on the passenger side of the car.

    Lots of wierd stuff here.... Shelby wanted to MAKE the Viper. Shelby in Whittier, CA were heading a different direction though, they had a frame done and the plan was to do a more Cobra like car, V-8 based (the frame was sold at an auction when they closed the facility). Shelby could not...

    If you are a Wisconsin alum this is your Viper

    Wow ..... Sorry, even as a Wisconsin alum (BSME).... I'd have to loose the interior, and the Bucky Badger on the hardtop, but maybe the "W" could stay (LOL).
