    kissed a curb, need help.........

    Looking backwards from underneath the front of the car, compare the main frame rail on the left with that on the right and see if it looks straight. Secondly remove the wheel and check the frame at the mount point for the lower A-arm. You should definitely get an alignment done. If you are...

    Bumper clips/gap question

    The gaps between the bumper, hood, headlights and fender are infinitely adjustable but are a pain to do. If the gaps are fine now, I'd ignore the missing clips and the hassle of alignment. Believe me, that gap will be annoy you forever if it's not fixed.

    Old tires

    There are too many factors to consider: road temp, road traction, tire wear, tire age, tire temp, rpm, etc. You be the judge.

    Gen V Viper

    The tax system, when compared to the prior systems, does favor the high income group. The reduction in the tax brackets rewards the high income group in thousands and the middle income group in hundreds. AMT is a whole separate issue that used to affect the high incomre group only but now...

    Replace Rivets Around Wheelwell

    Just go to your local autobody supplier and they can hook you up for a pack of 20 rivets. Check your yellow pages for listings. That's what I did.

    !!CAUTION!! when jump starting your Gen II

    If there is some juice, you could always try push starting it. It has worked for me when the battery is just below normal starting voltage.

    Broken Halfshaft and the Horrors of Towing a Viper

    Seems like it's part of the experience of owning a blown Viper. P.S. Hi Plum.

    Top blew off

    The early RTs were notorious for doing that but I thought that Chrysler fixed it. I guess not.

    Why doesn't Dodge more actively promote the ACR Viper?

    Marketing is to improve sales. For a limited production car like the Viper, a huge sales pitch might not be necessary unless there are no takers. And keep in mind that the more marketing, the greater will be the marketing component of the cost. But I agree that the Viper has lost it's halo car...

    McGuire Airshow - FREE EVENT - June 1, 2008

    I believe there might be truth to the F22 rumor since it's been confirmed for the Jones Beach airshow one week before. I might see you there. Oh wait, gotta take the kids so the Viper is out.

    I am giving up hooters girls forever

    A slashed tire is way more effort than a severely keyed car. I think you got lucky!

    $175 Zymol is it worth it??

    My answer is pretty straightforward. If it's a show car, yes. If you are going to drive it to the show, no.

    How much can you put in a Viper?

    Ah yes, that's like fitting a square box into a round trunk in my GTS. I empty a full Costco cart into the back of my GTS. Obviously I have to throw away the boxes.

    Here is another one of Chrysler's Viper Tax!

    I work on my motorcycles myself and just finished a 24K (major) service on my BMW R1100RT. For the heck of it, I asked the stealer for a quote and got a whopping $960 incl tax. :crazy2: Fricking unbelievable! :lmao:So the Viper tax almost seems like pennies on the dollar. P.S. You should see...

    NY/CT Region Karting - Sunday, April 27

    Looks like Chuck blew away the competition. I think those deviled eggs are part of a strategy to fatten everybody else. :lmao:

    Estimate my Vipers damage, accident.

    Can't see any frame damage in the photos. But the photos don't show the point where the lower A-arm meets the frame. Since your wheel looks misaligned, that would be the first place to look at. I think it might be pinched.

    Estimate my Vipers damage, accident.

    My sentiment is that since it's a salvage car to start out with, the best approach would be to total it, but it back for 20% from insurance and use the 80% minus deductible insurance payout to fix it. So it goes from one salvage title to another, but you have 80% of cash to use as follows: 1...

    Nissan GTR Versus The 08 Viper

    Hmmm, if you put it that way, in the end the Viper is still a Dodge! :lmao: I wouldn't care if it was a Toyota that outperformed the competition. The price-performance and looks is what matters.
