    For those that knew, "Ed Big Daddy Roth"...

    Re: For those that knew, \"Ed Big Daddy Roth\"... A true Icon of the Hot Rod era is now gone! His artwork will live forever, what I remember most about his drawings and art was the long shifter sticking out of the car and the slobbering driver wanting to go faster and faster. Just like i your...

    Question on purchasing a viper

    Fiorano, The Lingenfelter name has been synonymous with high performance for a long time now, albeit with the "dark side" before getting into Vipers. But, if he says that he has a two year warrantee, I would take that to the bank, the man knows his stuff, period. If you check the "Classified"...

    Oh Thank you weatherman for this gorgeous weather!

    OK Bill, I already have thanked Production too. It's just that the Sales department is the one who tells me what Production has planned for the next 5 days worth of delivery! I'd love to have a more direct line to Production, but this time at least, my prayers were answered by the Man In...

    Oh Thank you weatherman for this gorgeous weather!

    OK OK, to the Higher Authority, Thank you Lord for the great weather! Now if I can just convince him to keep it this way for a while! I went out again after dinner for another ride. (Got that permanent smile again, thought it had gone away.) Bigs, you are right, up here in the north country...

    Oh Thank you weatherman for this gorgeous weather!

    Well, today started off fairly cold here in Hastings, MI, but by noontime, it was beautiful and clear! Called the insurance company and said, put the '94 Dodge back on full coverage right now please. OK, got home at lunch (only live 4 miles from work), and got the baby out of the garage for...

    Garage pic's - show 'em if ya got 'em

    Re: Garage pic\'s - show \'em if ya got \'em Well, it may not compare with some of the other garages on the thread, but it is heated, and I sure do have some neato posters and street signs! I took another picture of it from a different angle but it did not come out very good. The back end of...

    Lets See What Your License Plate Says?

    Here are both our old one(bottom plate), and our current one. Everybody kept asking me what an "aspi" is, so we changed to a more obvious plate. However, I still get folks that ask me "What kind of car is it?", even after they see the plate! Sheesh!

    Drag Strip Question and Z06 sighting....

    A lot of it has to do with the track conditions, and how well the track is set up. I have been to several tracks with the 340 six pak car a few years ago, and my best times(14.9) were at a track right close to home. Times varied from a 14.9 to a 15.6 from track to track. Atmosperic conditions...

    Viper Windows

    Does Steve O'Brien Designs in San Diego, California still make side windows for the RT/10? Just curious, as I sent an inquiry to the address in the Viper Accessories section of the website and haven't gotten a reply. The phone number doesn't work either! If anyone knows about this company, I...

    VCA Super Buy!

    Bill, Most dealers around here will get at least 2K to 3K over MSRP for that car! I just can't see that kind of price for the PT Cruiser. I know everybody wants one, but right now they are overpriced. Thanks for bringing the pricing back to earth on these cool looking cars!

    Viper in R.I.

    Hey Acatala7, We used to live in Cumberland, RI (off Diamond Hill Road, near Chapel Four Corners), still have a friend there (near the Police station) who recently got a Z06. He says there are no Vipers around that he has noticed, now I can tell him different. We'll be heading back there in...

    How did you get into Vipers?

    I have always been into Mopars, have had 383 Chargers, 340 Dusters, and my last Mopar muscle car, a '70 Challenger T/A 340 Six Pak car. I thought that was a blast of a car to have, and d**n lucky to own one, only made 2400 of em total. Having moved from Indianapolis to Hastings, Mi, I met up...

    Rear view mirror problem

    I am 5'-8", and I have a tough time with the same thing, the rear view gets in the way of the right side view. To make it even worse, if you drive any of the time with factory side curtains, they mess up your view out the right side as well. As Jon B said, moving the mirror around somewhat did...

    New VCA Classifieds "Opening Soon"

    Re: New VCA Classifieds \"Opening Soon\" Jay, Just a quick question for you on the classified section, Do you intend to have some sort of "rating" system for those who place ads, or the buyers, sort of like ebay does? I had a bad experience not long ago with one of the ads placed in the...

    Viper Recall Anybody hear about it? I heard it on the news

    It almost makes the power outages worth while, unless you are the poor guy who got stuck in an elevator during the power outage. He made the national news yesterday, and first thing he said was "It made me miss my lunch hour!" We are still waiting for spring here in Michigan, kind of up and...

    Customer Service...Is it too much to ask ??

    Man, I must be very lucky to have a small town C/P dealer who just happens to have a Viper tech on duty. I did not buy the car there, they don't even sell Vipers, but they always treat me right. I don't think there is another Dodge dealer who has a Viper tech within 100 miles of here that I...

    Go Ohio! Pix of Club @ Plant Tour...

    Thomas or Laurie, When was that picture taken? Isn't it a very recent picture? Thomas, you now have proof that the wooden plaque hasn't been missing for long, if it was still in this picture, unless the plaque in the picture is a reproduction of the original. I went on the tour back in January...

    Viper Recall Anybody hear about it? I heard it on the news

    What Viper recall is that? Haven't heard anything about it whatsoever. What is the recall for, and which years would be involved? I think it is for the Momo seat harness, that's only for the ACR and anyone who added it to their car as an option. <FONT COLOR="#ff0000" SIZE="1" FACE="Verdana...

    Go Ohio! Pix of Club @ Plant Tour...

    Woops, sorry I misunderstood you Thomas, the wing is missing! How in the world could someone walk out with that and not be noticed? Geez, can you purchase one there in the gift shop? There might have been a very busy time and somebody wrapped it in a bag, and walked out with it. Hey, some of...

    why is corvette beating viper at lemans,texas and sebring???and how?

    The Vette has not penalized to anywhere near the same degree as the Viper. The Vette was even allowed to have a larger motor installed that is not even available in the Vette right now. All the Viper got, was added weight, restrictor plates, etc, etc, it was time for the Viper factory team to...

    Assualt with a Deadly Weapon and jealousy...

    Hey Tony, Being an Ex-Rhode Islander (Cumberland), I can sympathize with your experience, but these kooks are everywhere now. You are lucky that it ended the way it did, and one of the first things I would suggest if you don't have one yet, is to carry a cell phone with you at all times, just...

    How to lock down your hood

    Jon, I haven't had anyone (that I know of), try to open the hood on our '94, but, there is no alarm hooked up to it on the '94's, as you know. That makes me feel a little uneasy when I park it somewhere. Is there an easy fix for the alarm to tie it in to the hood also? I know that the newer...

    Help-can't get my car!

    Re: Help-can\'t get my car! Mark, You might want to give Reliable a call. I think they advertise in Viper Magazine. I don't know if they make the route you are wanting, but they are the Factory transport truck line for the Viper. If anybody knows how to transport a Viper, they do!

    Gainesville Raceway - Sean Roe wins!

    You know who benefits most from Sean's racing? We do, because he is the "Test Pilot" for much of the equipment he sells on his web site. It would seem that Sean gets to "test" a lot of the equipment before he puts it on his site, as is obvious from his new brake offer with 14" disks. Way to...
