I never really liked those. The open mouth bumper doesnt look right, and the crest doesnt look too great either. Are the engines any stronger?

It's getting to the point where cars not signed by Shelby will bring more money.

 

[big-n-italian]

i do not have much info on these cars right now. for a long time i thought there were only 19 made. tonight i found a plackard on this black one that says (10) of (25). however, this appears to be the only black one made.

so i must now go back and re-edit all of the past shelby comments.

 

[big-n-italian]

the engine looks stock, but who knows. clearly no SC or TT.

You must be registered for see images attach

The Sneaky Pete in the middle of the hood looks silly IMHO.

 

[Casey]

So Shelby signed it, put a fin on the back and cut a piece out of the facia. Oh, and added the wheels.

Not worth a penny more than a standard Viper IMO.

i am with you PLaw - the car looks overbadged. graphics on the windshield, signatures everywhere, "CS" all over, etc.

 

[IEATVETS]

I am with Casey. Not worth any more than another 96 RT/10. To me the only "real" Shelbys were built in the 60's and were known as Cobra's and Mustang's.

I bought a glove box signed by CS door for my '94RT. They were readily available back then.

This car was on ebay a while back. Not a fan of the wing or the sneaky pete on the hood.

 

[KWIK96]

Viper bling.
not on my shopping list.

 

[Matt M PA]

Yeah, I don;t even know if those models were "endorsed" by Chrysler. I don't know that they will ever bring big money like a vehicle that was sanctioned by it's maker.(For example, the SuperBirds were assembled completely by Plymouth, and Charger Daytonas were sanctioned by Dodge, but modified by Creative Industries)

I see the Shelby Vipers simply as an aftermarket conversion...ya know, like painting dolphins on.

All kidding aside, that's why there is chocolate and vanialla...to each their own.

 

[Cop Magnet]

They could have done the signature a little nicer. Looks like Crayola or a Sharpie. At least engrave the number and signature or something.

 

[SylvanSRT]

not factory authorized, they were converted by the dealer(Fitzgerald). I think the agreement with Shelby allowed for 25 to be built and the demand by the public only supported the 19 that were actually built. the value now may be only slightly more than a stocker at this time(in my eyes) and in the future it may or may not be a huge premium. If i had a crystal ball i'd be picking lotto numbers though.

 

[Klayfish]

I guess it's a matter of how much you value 'ol Shelby and his signature. If you hold him in high regard, it may add value for you. Having come from the Cobra replica ownership group, I can tell you that was a huge debate all the time over there.

For my own $.02, I could care less if Shelby signs it. I respect him for putting the original Cobra together, but his recent actions have tainted my opinion of him.

I'd throw away the glove box lid and get a new one.

Not really a fan. Does not really look that great. I think I like a stock 96 better.

 

[Bobpantax]

Such diplomacy. Say it! The thing is fugly. Someone took a perfectly decent Viper and turned it into an eyesore.

Bob:

Your a funny guy. I will have to agree with you although those words are harsh . Never knew you were in Miami. I am down there all the time.
