Need pic of a Silver RT/10 with Stripes Please

[ViperJoe]

Would like to see pics of a Silver roadster with stripes, and with a striped top in place if possible too.
Contemplating this mod.
Any thoughts of painting the stripes as opposed to tape stripes?
Thanks!

 

[ViperJoe]

OK, so no one here has done this to their Silver RT? :-(

 

[slaughterj]

Nope, they're smart enough to leave the best like it is

BTW, I like the fact that your car is identical to mine, so that when I'm in the area, there's plausible deniability

 

[Eric]

One example.

 

[Austin]

One example.

What????


Anyway, I have some pics of a silver RT that is striped. I will have to post them when I get home though. I personally think it looks better just plain silver. The silver looks very ****. Just my .02 cents.

[ViperJoe]

Thanks Austin, will await the posting of the pics

Slaughter I knew you would stop in on a "Silver RT" thread! LOL!

 

[Austin]

No problem ViperJoe! This is the only silver RT I have with stripes.

Austin

 

[RedSnakeGTS]

he needs to get rid of the blak racing stickers, especially since they are nowhere to be found

 

[Austin]

Dont shoot the "poster".


Austin

 

[RedSnakeGTS]

haha, austin, i actually know the guy. he lives down the road from me

 

[Austin]

Really? I havent seen him post here in a while, whats up?


Austin

 

[Austin]

One other thing... The only thing I dont care for to much on this RT is that he still has the rear exhaust pipes sticking out the back and the stickers on the side. Other then that, the color of the stripes goes well with the silver and tan interior.


Austin

 

[RedSnakeGTS]

i dont know him that well, i know his son. so as to why he doesnt post i have no idea

 

[Austin]

I was just curious... I think he posted about the stripes and other things he had done and then he like vanished. Oh well...


Austin

 

[ViperJoe]

Austin, Thanks
RedSnake or Austin, are they a dark maroon?

 

[V10 MOJO]

finally someone knows this ghost, tell him to get his asss online and to answer emails, LOL. there is a couple poeple interested in that rollbar, me being one of them, and noone can find a Blak racing anywhere.

seriously, tell his son to let him know rdustman needs help in getting a rollbar

 

[RedSnakeGTS]

they are maroon stripes, rdustman, i have told him! i dont talk to his son very much, but when i do, i always mention it!!!!! im trying, i know you are really interested...

 

[V10 MOJO]

thnx man, i appreciate it.

 

[ViperJoe]

Didn't even notice the roll bar on the first look. Looks nice though!

 

[Gerald Levin]

Isn't he the one that said he had the roll bar custom made and installed for him at an incredibly low price? I may be wrong here but seems to me it was this car. Anyway, the stripes on this RT look really nice to me.

 

[Landspeed]

Sorry for the long time no post, been very busy lately.
Yes, the stripes are (sp?) Taheysion Red, a dark candy apple red color that came on old Buicks.

The stickers are merely for advertisement to get his shops word around, they will be taken off next time the car is Zaino'ed.

The "quad" exhaust is because I did a side exhaust conversion and found out the rear of the car looks horrible with a big hole there. I ordered a rear exhaust cover plate from someone at the North Texas Viper Club meeting which was about 4 months ago and I haven't seen the guy since, so I guess its time look for a company that sells these. BTW anyone know of one?

The rollbar
I had seen everyone else's roll bars and to me they just didn't look right (skinny bars, needs holes drilled, too tall e.t.c)

So I had a roll bar custom made by Black Racing. I specified that I wanted the bar to be FAT, and chrome, and no new holes were to be drilled. (Also I didn't want the bar to be race certified)It took awhile for them to make it, but considering they had to bend/weld/and chrome the bar it really wasn't that long.

It took about a month but it looks so good, its the perfect height, thickness and fit, I was very satisfied. The bar can be seen easily from behind the car and it looks awesome from the back, Ive never heard a negative comment about it.

I've got the number Black racing on a receipt I'll dig up in the morning.
I WILL post the number to BLAK racing tomorrow. If anyone has any questions about it, feel free to PM me.

BTW thank REDSNAKEGTS, if he wouldn't have gave word of this to me, I would've never seen it, thanks Eric.

Btw here a list of all mods done to the car:
99 Viper RT-10
Autoform Side Exhaust Conversion Kit w/ Borla mufflers
Autoform Rear "Lip Spoiler"
Chrome stock wheels
Blak Racing Roll Bar

In need of a rear exhaust plate cover

How does it mount?

What do you mean by "not race certified"?

 

[RedSnakeGTS]

i dont understand why you specifically wouldnt want it race certified?? i never thought to ask you about that........

John

Yes, I will take some pictures tonight with the top off, and close-ups of fittings.

How does it mount?

There are two screws on each side behind the seats, the roll bar has 2 flanges going down to he screw-holes (its hard to explain, Ill take pictures.

Well I have heard other cage's have a "point" rating given by the NHRA, my roll cage does not, it is purely for looks though I think a track wouldnt say anything if they saw mine.

i dont understand why you specifically wouldnt want it race certified?? i never thought to ask you about that

I didnt want it intentionally not to be race certified, but since the cage has no point value, Im just guessing it wouldnt be.

BTW does anyone have any picture hosting space?

 

[RedSnakeGTS]

hey landspeed, if you need a digital cam, call me up.....

 

[Landspeed]

hey landspeed, if you need a digital cam, call me up.....

[J DAWG]

Landspeed, still waiting for those more extensive roll bar pics and Black Racing's number please.
Guys that are interested, and following this thread, maybe we can get a reduced price for quantity. If memory escapes them, would you be opposed to letting them take another look at the bar Landspeed to refresh their memory?
Thanks!
