    black viper gts paint cleanup with Adam's

    I may be an idiot sir, but I am no idiot (for those of you that watch Family Guy). I tried Mr. Flintstone's drill on the exhaust sill only just to make sure, and I'm glad I did. The damage was very light, much lighter than even the rest of the paint I was attempting to correct. I was lucky my...

    black viper gts paint cleanup with Adam's

    Funny you mention the drill. I knew it was an "ultra Flex" as in a concentrated rotary, so I set it on minimum torque (to not burn right through friction points) and lowest speed. In fact, on the exhaust sills, my cordless drill went dead, and at 2am with a long work day coming I had no...

    black viper gts paint cleanup with Adam's

    I used basically three kits, the Adam's Brilliance with porter cable, tire/trim kit, and glass cleaner and sealer. It was multiple passes with the porter, I was too hesitant to jump right to the Flex machine. But anyway, green pad with severe swirl remover, orange pad with swirl and haze...

    black viper gts paint cleanup with Adam's

    Thanks Junkman for videos on proper technique and helping me find Adam's: before: after: light breeze on the "after" pics brought in the little particles that you see on the paint

    I am thinking of selling my 2010 Graphite Viper ACR

    If you are in Albuquerque like your sig says do you ever do the Saturday morning burrito thing? I know Everett (spelling?) with the mosler through my father in law; what's the chance of a '99 viper gts owner getting a ride in one of your toys? I'll even buy the burritos ;)

    New to me GTS in Albuquerque

    Well, thanks for the thoughts nonetheless. The ironic thing is I picked it up in Lexington KY, very close to the famous Junkman. Of course, I didn't know at the time so I missed quite the opportunity. We're on the eastside too close to Eubank. I'm pretty amazed at how many vipers are here...

    New to me GTS in Albuquerque

    '99 GTS I mentioned in the new owner questions section. Needs some pretty extensive clear coat correction, but black is always a nightmare. 1 owner, 17k miles, bone stock :usa:

    Anyone Familiar with this 2000 Black GTS in Kentucky?

    I was in contact with these guys when I was looking. The car was at another dealership, I think in West Virginia. All of a sudden its sold, but then pops up at this dealership. I'm in contact with them, wanting more pics because at the time they were terrible. I don't hear from them and all...

    Did anyone have any problems with Passport for VOI 11? I've had my fair share of transporting issues in the past.

    new '99 gts viper owner

    Thanks for the replies, can any of you recommend an enclosed carrier? I know of the major ones- DAS, Reliable, etc.

    new '99 gts viper owner

    Long story to this, but bottom line is the dealership and I were chatting back and forth through email. All of a sudden they stop responding and the car is on ebay. Let's say I'm happy with the deal :headbang: 1 owner, 1999 gts, black on black. EXACTLY the year/car/color I wanted. I...

    GTS- 2000 ACR no abs or 2001 gts with abs

    Thanks for all the responses; ya, I've got a car already that has been a money pit, I'm not counting on an investment at all, just nice to know it MAY be one of those Cuda types in a billion years. I can tell my wife it's for the children... Anywho, I know being a noob the same questions...

    GTS- 2000 ACR no abs or 2001 gts with abs

    Greetings again... Is the ACR upgrade substantial compared to the GTS? The same question for ABS and non-ABS models too. Ideally, I'd like a black on black GTS with abs, but Dodge didn't help me with that. So anyway, I'm still looking and came across an '01 GTS sapphire and a '00 black...

    Ok, what about this one? DODGE VIPER GTS ACR COUPE, # 2049

    new guy and 99 Viper GTS in VA

    I noticed that already; the Carfax notes it was basically a typo during registration that was later fixed. The funny thing is that I was looking at it when it was at Burns (dealership) of Gaffney, SC. I happened to be on vacation and they "sold it" when I got back... evidently to this...

    new guy and 99 Viper GTS in VA

    Ok, seriously, if anyone is competent and willing to check it out, please give me your $$$ requirements. For me to get out there would be a royal pain in the butt with my work schedule and the fact it's Nowhere, USA.

    new guy and 99 Viper GTS in VA

    Yep, the exact car I want has to be in the middle of nowhere. If anyone knows of a similarly priced black on black 99 coupe, let me know. I guess I just have to get out there myself. I thought the ebay pics were a little better than the dealer pics; that gave me a little hope.

    new guy and 99 Viper GTS in VA

    It would definitely help me out; I'm a gearhead but I'm not familiar with the 8.0L. If anyone is willing I'd paypal them some dinner money for the trouble. I don't think the dealer understands what my definition of "mint" is; he says it's mint, but trusting people has gotten me in...

    here is a link to the old ebay listing: the same car is pictured. Dodge : Viper: eBay Motors (item 170536164488 end time Sep-11-10 12:24:31 PDT) Thanks again for the responses. :2tu:
