    Check your tire pressures

    Not just Vipers--your family cars etc. Having done legal work for tire companies, I have found one of the most dangerous things you can do is ignor pressure. I can't tell you how many times i have looked over at a car at a light and noticed the tires are almost flat. What really amazes me...

    Chad--thanks. Just sorry the pic quality is lousy. Time for a new camera--or eye exam.

    The Big 3--only in America

    Some days are better than others. It was just as fun when I was driving a 1985 Camry dreaming of owning a Vette.:)

    The Big 3--only in America

    I tend to buy American and it is amazing to me (having lived through the late 70s and 80s) what American car companies can do when there is competition and I link a lot of it back to 89 when the Viper was being created. My GT arrived today--one of the last ones built with few miles. Here are...

    Adding a GT to the Viper Den

    Chad, thanks for the kind words--you might get an argument from my wife (BTW, I like the new avatar) I will be giving up one Viper--my 06. By design I limit myself to 3 sports cars with my garage. I would be dangerous with a storage facility. (a couple of fun daily drivers stay outside) The...

    New '92 GEN 1 owner from the Netherlands

    Hold onto it. Maybe one day it will be like having a 53 Vette. That's what I am counting on.:)

    Adding a GT to the Viper Den

    Heretofore, my only blue oval has been my F-150. In my never ending flirt with divorce today I made a deal on an 06 Ford GT (white/blue--like my old 05 Comm Ed) Hopefully, next week I will have pics. Funny-- back when I looked at GTs in 05 I was struck by the HP. Now my CTS-V has more HP--how...

    Rotary Revolution Lift Ramps, extended?

    I had the steel ramps that come with it and never had a problem with any of 3 Vipers clearing it. I just changed to the longer aluminum mostly because of weight--they are really expensive.

    RT VIN 00002 Engine reunited with car

    He has so many cars, (planes and coptors) I don't know how he keeps up. Originality meant a lot less to him than us. I suspect it was in the way. The guy he sold it to is an "engine collector" . I could write a book about him. The whole story is utterly fascinating (maybe only to us...

    RT VIN 00002 Engine reunited with car

    Thanks for the responses, and White Out I like that table. I will try to answer --yes, I knew a replacement motor was in the car and was not surprised since most of the very early ones were bad. --before buying the car, i spoke to a lot of "experts" including well known car mags execs...

    RT VIN 00002 Engine reunited with car

    On price--rather not say. I can say there were months of negotiation, with others helping including the Editor of a popular Car Mag. When the seller knows he has a matching number, one of a kind engine, and the buyer has the car it was built with it does not help the buyer's leverage. On...

    RT VIN 00002 Engine reunited with car

    Almost a year ago I purchased VIN 00002 from Bob Lutz. He told me at the time that shortly after the car was built in 92 , like many early Vipers, it has excessive oil consumption . Being that he was President of the company, Team Viper simply took his car back to the factory and replaced the...
