    Ben Keating's WILD Paint Job: Name it?

    I like it too, however, I have a story to tell. I took my girls to see "Ramona & Beezus" last week, and there is a scene where they are washing a truck for the neighbor. The truck ends up backing into the garage, tipping over dozens of cans of paint making a 'rainbow' paint job on the truck...

    anyone know of a Blue/White VCA Ram SRT for sale?

    One of the members of the IL VCA has one for sale (had it showing at Roanoke). Maybe Alex can chime in with the owner's details.

    Another? GTS Crash

    You may be correct, I have no idea why I put GTS in the title. :dunno:

    Roanoke's "other" special edition

    You are 100% correct Jon. We were fortunate to go into the overflow building as well (but not the off-site brick ones) - I could sit all day and listen to his stories!

    Roanoke's "other" special edition

    One of the great things about visiting Roanoke, is when John takes you into the storage areas to show off some of the great things under cover. From an original 92 with the window sticker still on it, to an old RoadRunner with an even greater story behind it. The press has published the black...

    GTS Window Trim - Adhesive to fix?

    For anyone who has taken it apart to do the glue fix - the service manual hints that the inner stanchion trim cover can be removed on its own. Were you able to? Or did you have to remove the entire door panel first?

    GTS Window Trim - Adhesive to fix?

    I tested out some of Elmer's Nano-glue, and it seems that it will do the job well. Now just have to get the inside trim out, then the outside piece off to clamp it up nicely. The nano-glue expands, so clamping is 100% required, or you'll find yourself with a bowed-out trim and a window that...

    GTS Window Trim - Adhesive to fix?

    Thanks Dave - couldn't find anything related in the service manual and wasn't using the right search term. Glad I found it before it became lost - $600ish to replace (yikes)! I see it must have been riveted on originally, so the previous owner must have glued it also at some time.

    GTS Window Trim - Adhesive to fix?

    After sitting in the sun all day at Roanoke (Mopar show), when I went to roll up the window, the rubber trim was just sticky enough to bite on the window and pull away from the door. Looks like it is applied by a factory adhesive. Any suggestions/recommendations before I slap on some epoxy...

    Back to School Viper Stuff

    A head's up - it's that time of year again, and once again you can find some cool Viper stuff in the school supply section at WalMart. They have 2-pocket folders and spiral notebooks with shots of the 2010 Viper on them! The 2-pockets are only 97 cents, didn't catch the price of the spiral...

    Any new info on the 2012 Gen V snake?

    The Prowler didn't come out until 1997, so doubtful their mirrors could have been used on early gen Vipers without a wayback machine. The concept Prowler wasn't even shown until 1993! May have been the other way around though (Prowler using Viper parts).

    difference 2002-2008

    Tough crowd today. Since you only want a coupe, you can easily narrow down the years you're looking at. If you want the old (curvy) body style, then the 2002 is your choice. It was the last year of the Gen2. 2003-2005 was verts only, so you can eliminate those. 2006 brought the first coupe...

    Western Illinois / Eastern Iowa Lunch/Car Show - Saturday June 12.

    Thanks for posting this Rocket! They are expecting 300-500 cars, and this is probably the largest car show in the area each year. I know they have nearly 300 door prizes too, so everyone is pretty much assured something for their entry fee. Trophies to the top 100 also. Mills Chevrolet will...

    Another 6-spoke on a GTS thread (w/pics)

    Correct! It killed me when they arrived - the manufacture date was only about 2 months from my receiving them, then I waited 5 months to finally get them on.......friggin' Iowa.....:D

    DYI Battery Tender

    Well, in their defense, if you 'weld' them to the car as the instruction site says will happen, you'll have to buy another set! Sounds like planned obsolescence to me! :rolaugh::rolaugh:

    Another 6-spoke on a GTS thread (w/pics)

    Thanks all - and to answer the question above, yep...stock brakes. Was worried about how they would look all exposed and all, but the shine of the rotors really comes through! What I like about them is they are 'edgier' than the 'wagon wheels'. I suppose the design is supposed to complement...
