    Jack points on a gen2 ??

    Not my car, just a pick off of BAT. Jack points have little ovals on them. Sometimes using the frame from the back of the car can give a little better clearance for the jack on lower cars. Plenty of frame locations to ballance the car on jack stands all around.

    Question about coolant change on my 1997 GTS with 16k miles

    IMHO, I'm a fan of changing out fluids, knocking out a tune up and starting fresh for piece of mind. I get lazy about dif and transmission fluid, but I don't find those to be as critical as an oil change, coolant flush, plugs, and wires. Check the overall condition of hoses, belt, and pulleys...

    Not gonna lie GTS Dean, with everything you have put that car through, I am impressed with how good that suspension looks.

    Gen 2 Rear Brake Caliper Adapters for CTSV Camaro SS Rear Calipers

    I have a set of these calipers laying around. I'd grab up some of those brackets if they still make them.

    gen 1 front calipers

    I had to jump through BAT pics, because I didn't realize the RT cars went through more than one caliper change. I was tracking the Viper change to RT caliper in the 92 - 93 cars, guess it went from RT back to Viper in 95.

    1997 RT/10 Viper for sale in central florida

    With the miles your car has I doubt it would fetch top dollar, but to the right buyer you might be able to do better than $50 for a 97 RT/10. Tough to say with where the market is right now. That strong money people were getting during Covid has mellowed out for the most part.

    My viper conundrum

    Never hurts to frequent places where people will have good car etiquette. Examples would be Cars and Coffee events, local car shows, track events as either a driver or spectator, car cruises etc. etc. etc. I definitely get the concern, but you can get a lot of low stress enjoyment out of the car...

    Radiator upgrade

    Couldn't hurt to look at the idler pulley, tensioner, and serpentine belt while you have the access. Cheap and easy to knock out that preventative maintenance.

    Original Vintage 1996 Video of my 1996 GTS Coupe being delivered by Reliable Freight.

    That is an outstanding video, and thank you for sharing! I was still a high-schooler when your delivery happened. That would have been around the time I saw one in the wild for the first time. Without going into detail, I was hooked is an understatement. I have built many a cool cars over the...

    1996 GTS Information

    Not keeping any records from special builds of limited production cars is kind of crazy. To each their own I guess.

    1996 GTS Information

    Have you contacted Hennessey? I've got to imagine they kept records pertaining to VIN and possibly which level of build were associated with them. At least I would like to believe they would...but Hennessey.

    Ground Clearance 2" Air Lift Kit - trying to find the preCovid $750 kit I posted about ...somewhere

    Interesting, so air cups. Now I have something new to nerd out to/learn about. Never knew that was a thing, but I'm definitely curious about the pluses and minuses. Snake oil or realistic budget lift for our cars?

    Ground Clearance 2" Air Lift Kit - trying to find the preCovid $750 kit I posted about ...somewhere

    $750 ground clearance kit?...I'm all ears lol. Nothing says daily driver like clearing driveways and speedups. Probably too good to be true for many reasons, but I've got my bucket of popcorn.

    Looks great!, definitely looking forward to seeing her make some runs. Have your plans changed for where you want to run the car this year?

    Klunking sound when turning n engaging clutch

    Probably worth getting the car off the ground and start moving some parts around. Half shafts, u joints, transmission mount, etc, etc, etc. Plenty of things can start clunking around under load. Ideally a visual inspection will reveal something that looks out of sorts, otherwise you'll have to...

    1995 viper running issues

    Sounds like the PCM/ECU might need to relearn. There are a bunch of write ups on here about diagnosing and working through the fix for that.

    01 GTS radiator hose question

    Looks like a coolant bleed valve. Usually people add them to the lower radiator hose for radiators that lack that feature. My guess is someone added it in order to purge air while filling the coolant system. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to replace all of that with a standard upper hose...

    First Viper GTS ACR of the Millennium?

    If you are specifically looking for the first ACR from 99, that is located in Vancouver WA at the WAAAM car museum. The owner, Ron Wade, has a special plate from the factory in the center console in addition to the ACR one.
