    Viper Shipping Soon - Modern Rims Needed Quickly Maybe?

    I have driven in pouring rain and snow when I first bought my viper. Pilot Sports are really a good choice. I don't know if size will make the difference, especially if you punch it. have heard that the 18" wheel is the ideal size for the viper for the track. The operator is the main source to...

    Switched Insurance

    You know how good your insurance is when you have to make a claim. Just curious do you know anyone that has made a claim on either Infinity or USAA Do they have replacement cost? Original viper products? etc. Pay cost at stated value instead of trying to bid you down?

    Switched Insurance

    I had three other cars and my house with State Farm. the other 2 cars are classics. They don't have my business anymore. The agent was nice and I actually felt a little bad for her. The claims adjuster is a jerk and he only cared if he looked good to the company. But if she didn't step in then...

    Switched Insurance

    OXIA; 2002-GTS-FINAL-ED I took my insurance out of State Farm. I had a classic car 73 Cuda vandalized and the agent came over and gave me a low ball estimate with a $500.00 deduction. It was dark in the garage and I couldn't see everything. I called him back and when he looked at the first...

    Switched Insurance

    Thanks I will check it out. Hagerty was fairly inexpensive for all three of my cars. What I liked is that the price included a whole year of insurance. I usually put storage insurance and had to play the game of a 6 month policy. Sometimes I liked to take the cars out in the early Spring or late...

    Switched Insurance

    I put my 93' viper on Hagerty Insurance. I heard that they are more likely to give you the stated value of your car. I also have two classic cars a 68' Charger and a 73" Cuda. I put all of them on Hagerty. Do you have an Insurance Company that is better. Insurance companies will go do a price...

    93 Viper - thoughts...

    Mine has 23,000 miles on it and I try to keep the milage down. Not too many opportunities where I live to drive it a lot. Take it to car shows. But didn't you buy the car to have fun with it? A car with only 3,200 miles on it is worth a lot more because of the low milage. I put headers and some...

    Dump it or restore it (96 RT/10 Special Edition)

    It depends on if you are into restoring, which sounds like a good car, or just want a new one. Do you have the time? But I would think seriously about parting out a running good car. That doesn't make sense. After restore you have a great car. You have a great car before the restoration. Have...

    PLEASE HELP, Need answers.. new accident victom.

    I put very little milage on my 93 However, I have a blast with it. Some great advice from above. This is a car, not stock market. If the car is in excellent shape and you can prove it was a minor accident then it will have no effect on its value. If you take the car and track it it won't have...

    Question, tires for 94

    I went to 18" on front and 19"on the back. I bought used rims from the year they made these I think it was 2001. They look great on the car and I think it handles better. Stored my 17" rims with tires on them.

    Question, tires for 94

    The cost of the tires is an inexpensive insurance. Two things to feel safe while driving the coolest car ever, tires and brakes. Change fluid. Be wise. The tires can get you by but it only takes one emergency stop to total your car and people getting hurt. Is that worth the money you save?

    Question, tires for 94

    I almost totaled my 93. Just bought it and the guy had put the original tires back on from 93. Not knowing any better with tires over 12 years old went to the 1/8th mile track. Lost control so fast hitting 2nd gear going sideways down the track. Was lucky to get it under control. After that new...

    question of viper value 1996

    Looks better if recent photo. Are you trying to buy it or sell it. With all cars the value of the car is what someone is willing to pay for it. Most viper don't have that much milage on them so you don't Preallyhave a reference on the durability of it. On the other hand people usually take good...

    Belanger Exhaust

    I have headers and exhaust. Really loud, but bearable. I put extra sound deadening under the carpet which helped in heat and sound. Side pipes are still hot and blister paint but way cooler than before. Gen 1

    Reverse light

    My passenger light burned out. I have a manual and looked it up. Figured out how to change it. It looked like the manual wanted you to take out the whole section. All you have to do it twist it out from the trunk. But mine is a Gen 1

    I know a man was test driving a viper at our local dealer and he punched it. Wrapped it around a telephone pole. Another man bought a viper for his kids graduation and he in his friend were driving on a gravel road, lost control hit a fence and pole. The pole had a transformer on it and it fell...

    question of viper value 1996

    Looking a the photo it looks like was raced hard. Lot of rock chip marks on the paint. What are you looking to sell in for. These days really drop in value with a lot of miles when you can pick one up for under 30k lies on it. Its a gamble on how much it is going to cost touring the car up to...

    RT/10 Exhaust - Open Headers and Custom Pipes

    LOL I've tried that trick. But when I do that fumes build up and it can backfire. So keeping a little pressure on the gas stops it from backfireing and I don't have to worry about bullets flying my way from the cop car. When it does it is really loud. Kind of fun but was wondering if it could be...
