[big-n-italian]

did anyone else notice this?

Fall 2005 issue - viper magazine. page 56. gen I viper in picture with owner and sibling living in Japan.

what is "wrong" in this picture? i blew up the pic for clarity.

It looks like there is no symbol on the front and no....Rollbar? where the back window should be.

Top and sport bar are gone. just like the orginal viper prototype and a few that i have seen converted to this configuration posted here before.

WOW!! We have a WINNER! you have won a free round of miniture golf!!

The "symbol" is something i missed, but where is the roll bar???

when you say "converted" mike, is that a "Japan" thing?

Good eye as it looks like a copy to me. Ugly orange side marker, no sport bar, no viper emblems, and the windshield wipers also appear to be incorrect.

I think a lot of export cars need the side markers.

You must be registered for see images

The windshield looks correct, that it the easiest way to spot a fake.

i just noticed too that the red gen I above doesnt have fog light covers, but the "odd" yellow gen I does. which of those is correct?

 

[carguy07]

I think all gen I have covers. They come off easy though.

All Gen I's and the first couple of years of Gen II's had fog light covers - the last year for fog light covers was 1998.

Unfortunately it correct, export units need these side markers which are the turn signals. Mine is one in Switzerland and I hate this ugly side markers . In the near future I will change those to nice ones, have to check local rules
Rollbar removal? Who does this? Never saw a unit so far. Ugly ....
