    gen 3 engine into gen 2 GTS

    I've seen gen 3 v10s put in a lot crazier stuff than another viper, so it can't be that hard. I've seen em in Nomads, New Yorkers, Volvos, you name it.

    Nerd alert- 2013 Maisto Vipers

    I found a red one at Walmart about a month ago for $10...it was the only one there, and they haven't gotten any in since. I was at a carshow just this weekend, and they were selling them loose (no box) in all 3 colors, but wanted like $20 a pop for 1/24.

    Does anyone have a recomendation for a mini polisher/buffer?

    If it's just for tiny touch ups, it really doesn't matter about battery life etc....just get a cheapo one, like a Meguiars etc. I bought a Mothers Powerball (for paint), for quick touch ups, and use it on low speed setting. It does the job. Not meant for heavy compounds though

    Gen 1 vs Gen 2 soft top

    I don't believe there is a difference in fitment, but I know the top that came with my early gen 1 was a bit of a joke. It really wasn't meant for driving by any means, more for if your car is sitting in the parking lot, and it starts to rain, you have something to put over it.

    *FOUND* 2013 SRT Viper Hot Wheel diecast pics! (rear end!)

    First off, I don't think anything will greatly devaluate the epicness that is Gen I & II Vipers.....after all, these are vipers, not vettes lol (I giggle when I see C5 vettes for like $14k). 2ndly, I would pay anything to own that hotwheels right now!! (even though in a few months time, it could...

    AMT Promo Mc.Vipers....how rare are they?

    ahh, I see. I have 1/24 plastic promos in all other colors, but don't have 96 like this in plastic. I think I remember the 3 car set you speak of (the other 2 had stripes as well). So it's worth about $1.50 lol

    AMT Promo Mc.Vipers....how rare are they?

    How rare are these AMT/ERTL cars....and are they worth much?? (regular Viper promos are worth like $10)

    Rodolphe Viper watch knockoff

    I couldn't imagine paying that much for a watch covered in car logos (and I'm a watch guy). Sure, they are gorgeous, but if you're spending over $2k for a watch, it's because you want it to get noticed. Normally, car-related novelty watches are associated with being cheap....much like a Mustang...

    Taking apart a 1/18 Burago Viper???

    that's what I first though, but where the windshield snaps to the firewall area, it's not going so well. It's like they tied it in a knot lol

    Taking apart a 1/18 Burago Viper???

    I would like to disassemble a 1/18 Burago Dodge Viper RT/10, but have no clue how to. I've tried, but it doesn't seem easy. Has anyone taken done this before?? Would love some tips if it were a 1/24 Burago Viper, it would be a piece of cake. I used to put together those 1/24 metal kits years ago

    Matte Black GTS

    Welcome! looks really mean...I love it. I too have a Satin finished RT/10 (snake skin green). The look is unique, but it's proving a tough sell now that we want to sell it. My advice: if you ever want to sell, repaint to stock :p

    Soon to be new owner, Need feedback

    Welcome, I hope this GTS turns out to be everything you're looking for. With that said, I would love to see some pics of your current rides....I loves GLHSs. Heck, I like V10 Rams too (I've owned both).

    Satin Snake Skin Green RT-10...what do you guys think??

    they have Satin Wraps??? Seriously??...wow! I've had car wraps done, but that was just conventional non-transparent vinyl. I had no clue they had transparent wraps on the market. That will be the way to go for the future.

    8 1/2 months to hopeful purchase

    welcome! Sounds like you'll have quite a gem. White 96s were always among my favorite Vipers. I can't remember the numbers off hands, but 96 was a low production year for R/T-10s (up until then, it was 2nd only to 1992). 415 hp, 488 lb torque for 96. I believe only 320-something came in...

    Satin Snake Skin Green RT-10...what do you guys think??

    That might look awesome! Worth some considering I think

    Satin Snake Skin Green RT-10...what do you guys think??

    I'll dig through, see if I have any better (higher)shots. There's 5ft of snow outside, so if I don't, taking new ones might be hard. I agree, new wheels would really set it off.

    Satin Snake Skin Green RT-10...what do you guys think??

    Now we're talking! that pic is really starting to grow on me. Thanks for the compliments so far. I'm loving the advice guys, keep it coming. Many of you seem to be on the same page. Change up the rims...perhaps a small amount of carbon fiber, and twin the stripes. I realize a few of you...

    Satin Snake Skin Green RT-10...what do you guys think??

    here is the stripe.... Some say it needs dual striped. I suppose it's not too late to go with dual stripes (just add another). I agree about the wheels, but they worked with what they had. The fit and finish/body gaps are impeccable now. This guy put it back together to better than original.

    Satin Snake Skin Green RT-10...what do you guys think??

    Matte Snake Skin RT-10...what do you guys think?? I thought I would post pics of this up here, just to see what you guys think. It was recently redone in Snake Skin Green, and finished with a Satin Glow clear (an ACR-esque driver's stripe as also added, done in Viper Emerald). There was some...

    Finally snapped a few pics of the car today!

    that GTS with those wheels is flat-out yummy :cool: I vote no for stripes....not because I don't like stripes (I love stripes), but because that's the way it came originally. I like to honor the factory's wishes :p
