It was a gorgeous day in the Bay Area today... perfect for snapping some pictures! If you want the full 3008 x 1960 version, just pop me an email!

That is a nice photo, Ben, where'd you take it?
(Is that skyline at 92?)

Correct, Eric -- that is the overlook turnout at the intersection of 92 & Skyline. I'm looking east toward Crystal Springs, and the sun is at 5 o'clock.

All show and no go

jk. I love that car, what's up with the yellow RT? Are you gonna come down to WSIR this weekend?

 

[Nadine UK GTS]

Very nice...thanks. I've yet to see one of these beauties in the 'flesh', a treat for my eyes.

Treynor can you actually buy one of those cars? And besides the obvious I can see on the outside what other options and how much does it cost msrp?

 

[treynor]

Jamie,
Liz and I bought this car as you see it from Woodhouse Dodge. We've added a couple internal things -- tubes & filters, Snake Oyl floormats -- but that's it. Aside from the exterior modifications, it has an internal rollbar and a carbon-fiber rear glovebox area.
I have no idea what MSRP it goes for -- Bill Pemberton, as always, made me an offer I couldn't refuse (so I didn't

) and I think he's still got 2-3 more in the incubator.
I'll say this -- it draws as much more attention than my yellow RT/10, as my yellow RT does over an SUV. A normal Viper is bad enough; my wife driving the Daytona practically causes accidents...

Cool pic.

Excellent! Beautiful picture, Ben.

It's my desktop picture now Ben.

Thanks,

The "all go, no show" yellow RT's coming along nicely -- I've told Doug as long as it's back by the time the weather warms up I'm happy. For a non-NOS car it's going to make some solid power.

FWIW, Liz's "most rice" Daytona made 419 RWHP with just filters & tubes. I'll have to slap some half-shafts on it and get out to the dragstrip...
