    1995 RT-10 sold @ Barrett Jackson

    That car has some stories to tell. The 1985 Ecklers special dash, the missing trim pieces where the windows attach to the doors, the just driven in the rain with the top down detail job on the interior, aftermarket stereo. I think that guy hit a home run ball, heck that was top dollar for that...

    Yellow Viper with Cognac Interior ?

    Yep Gen I Canadian thing. The US models were forced to have "passive" restraints. To skirt the rules they put the belt in the door and you are supposed to leave them buckled all the time. When you open the door you can get in and out without unbuckling the belts. Of course no one does this, but...

    Woodhouse sells these for ball joints, I would guess they would work on the links too.

    Need some help with this small leak please

    That's awesome! I just used a crow's foot wrench to get it off, but if it had been much tighter I would have had to make something like that.

    small rubber piece on bottom of starter

    Are you talking about the little black thing? I think that is just a moisture drain tube. I doubt it means much if you do not drive in the rain (more to keep water from splashing in the drain hole than out).

    $100,500 1999 Rt/10 ?

    Remy must be hurting pretty bad now, asking price was $170K. $170,000 Meteorite Viper by Christian Lassen Wasn't there some kind of reverse death pool where you give Remy a few grand and you would get to drive it a few days a year? Is infamous the right word?:dunno:

    You really don't want cruise ...

    I agree with you there. Could definitely be an issue with the tires & torque. Gotta say the cop it a hoot though.:rolaugh:

    Hybernation ...

    Over-inflate tires to 40psi or so. Big sheet of plastic under the car to prevent condensation (I used to just use a tarp). I always left the top off to let the interior breathe. If you are putting on the top and closing the car up, put some desiccant bags in it. Not sure if a frozen windshield...

    Question about bearings ...

    I think he was just heating the old nut on the old hub trying to salvage it. I'm 99% sure that you are supposed to re-torque those after putting some miles on them, just can't remember the spec.

    Question about bearings ...

    I would drive it for 3,000 - 5,000 miles and re-torque it. 300 ft/lbs sounds high, I would double check that.

    Stone Chips

    Have a couple decent size stone chips on my hood (daily driver not Viper). One of them is starting to rust, not bubbling or anything like that but long term that would happen.

    The right way to tow a viper? Really?

    This way the paint won't get scratched. I swear I remember someone said that this way was actually OK.

    Fresh air intake help needed

    Are you sure you want to mess with that? What I remember is that there is negative pressure at the scoop at speed. So it would potentially suck air out of your air box or you would at least have to overcome this to pull air in.

    Changing the battery ...

    Most good chargers/tenders need to see a few volts or they will not work at all. It's a safety feature to keep you from hooking them up backward or shorting the clips before getting them on the battery. Not sure what would happen if you put a charger in manual mode to override that? I don't...

    Changing the battery ...

    Mine only made it 2 1/2 years and then croaked.:mad: At least the replacement was free. Optima sold out to Johnson Controls a few years ago. I guess quality control has gone down hill with the switch. A older one (pre Johnson Controls) will last forever :rolleyes:
