Just got my Viper last week and won Best of Show yesterday!

Well,
I bought my Viper off eBay and flew to Chicago, IL from Fort Worth, TX which was about 983 miles. It is a 1994 RT/10 with 27k miles and stock . My girlfriend flew with me and we made the trip in about 13.5 hours. The drive home was a blast except for the rain! The stock soft top is junk! Thanks to the help of my girlfriends sweater, we stuffed it between the top of the windsheild and the top. The car was everything I expected and more and it turns so many heads! I have already put some new 18" wheels and white stripes on the car. Next week I get the Vipermania sliding windows, a 3-pc. trunk top, and im going to paint the exhaust covers red and convert the interior to black! I took it to a small car show on Saturday with around 30 cars and I took home the best of show. It was a blast and I let about 20+ kids sit in the car and get their pictures taken. I also took two people for the "ride of their lifes" lol. Here are the pics I hope you enjoy...

Pat: Definately looks better with stripes and wheels. ( Andrew: Can't believe it took that long for a girlfriend's sweater comment ! I would have thought that would have been in the first reply ! ) Glad you are having fun with your new torque monster...

pattymelt,

Just out of curiosity; did you buy that car from a guy named Frank in the Arlington Heights or Palatine area?

It was from a dealer in Downers Grove. It had yellow three spokes on it before, but it was from a person in the Chicago area.

Exactly what I was thinking. I too have the 18" wheels on my '96. Car looks great!

 

[Kiaser]
