Sorry Ulysses, I hope the settlement goes well. Mine has gone pretty good, but its still a pain in the *** .
I'm tired of experiencing and reading about wrecked Vipers.
Tony, How about we put a new forum for Viper wrecks and accidents?
Re: New Arrival - It\'s a Snake - SEASNAKE!
It's 10 pm and my wife finally pulled me away from our new baby. She's (the car) down there waiting patiently for the first coat of Zaino, but I'm going to have to sleep now - its been over a week since I've slept because I was waiting for her to...
We finalized the deal on my new blue 2001 RT today. There will be a new SEASNAKE on the road early next week. Come on Tuesday.
Thanks, Bill! I wouldn't have done it without your help.
I heard today that my car was totalled (I could have told them that last week) and I heard that the other driver didn't have enough insurance, so I now have to deal with my insurance(who have already told me my car was totalled). I should know the amount in the next day or two.
My new car...
I'll probably keep it without stripes for a while, that way the car will gain at least 10 mph top end when I put the stripes on. You can bet one of my first stops with the car will be the paint shop to choose the best color stripes for sapphire blue.
Re: Blue 2001 - Pemberton\'s a silver tongued devil
I plan on doing the stripes again, but probably not right away. Of course that may depend on how much I get out of the insurance settlement. Like you guys I think they set the car off great. They may even bring out the blue a little more.
The wreck happened during early rush hour on one of my town's busier roads. I am well known here because I am the only Viper owner for miles and miles who actually drives his car around town and it stood out quite a bit with the stripes. With the state of the cars and ambulances at the scene...
Blue 2001 - Pemberton\'s a silver tongued devil
With lines like "I'll make you a great deal because I feel so bad for you" , followed by "I'll bet that sapphire blue would also look great with those stripes" I'm as good as gaffed and in the boat. Just as soon as I work out the...
Here are a couple of pics I took at the body shop today. They have some better ones before the hood was taken off that I should be able to get later. It's not quite as bad as it looks from the front because it is jacked up on the driver side. The hood looks better than it is because it flexed...
I'm talking about my car, which is in Wilmington, NC. The rear qtrs, lid,etc are untouched. I don't know how long it will take me to get the insurance settled or what they will want for the leftovers. I'll keep you posted if you are interested.
What year is your car? I know of a Gen1 viper that was totalled on the front but still perfect on the rear. I might be able to get you a real good deal.
Thanks for all the support guys & girls. I don't know how many calls I've received asking about my welfare. It's gratifying to know so many people care about you.
I'm including the post I did after I first purchased the car to let you guys know just what the car meant to me.
The following...
I drove mine every day for 3 years and loved every minute of it. Even when I had to spend an hour getting the water out of it before I had the weatherstripping right. I enjoyed it right up to the minute it was totalled and I'm enjoying it right now because I'm not in a hospital. Do small...
First. Thanks to the guys at Dodge. I do not have a scratch or bruise on me, but I'm going to be sore tomorrow for sure.
A lady pulled right out in front of me while I was going 55 and I t-boned her. Luckily she had no passengers in her car and only sustained slight injuries to herself...
Matt,
Give Doug a call. He has a lot of experience working heads for Gen 1 cars and will give you the real skinny.
I don't know about the big HP claims. Maybe 30 rwhp without a cam upgrade.
