Dodge Stealth, It was too "foreign". Carrol Shelby was the driver.

You are correct Sam

I need to find one you don't know

 

[ViperJeff]

What makes 1992 MY Viper, VIN (last 3) 076 unique among all the other 1992 Vipers?

 

[ViperJeff]

Did I make this one to hard?

 

[3whitevipers]

The last 3 of any vin are unique

 

[Sam Goldfarb]

Did I make this one to hard?

I don't know if it's hard, I just didn't know the answer!

 

[ViperJeff]

The last 3 of any vin are unique

That is a correct answer, however.....

Looking for the other answer

Hint: the answer is at CAAP

First Black Viper

 

[broomrider]

Explain for Broom. I thought all 1992 cars were red?

 

[steve e]

I thought all 285 cars made in 92 could be any color you liked as long as it was RED. Yes Jeff is right, they made one as a development trial car in black. Also one in Green and Yellow.

 

[ViperJeff]

Hopefully the Trivia is helping

I need to do some homework f my own research for more questions that people just may not know

 

[steve e]

We know everything!!! As long as you give us enough time to look it up.

 

[ViperJeff]

Do I need to give more time?

 

[Sam Goldfarb]

Do I need to give more time?

Is that a yes or no question or multiple choice?

I think 24 hours from the posting would be a reasonable time limit. Some may lose interest if they have to wait too long to get the answer!

 

[ViperJeff]

Just being vague

 

[steve e]

Yo Jeff, was I right about the Black,Yellow,Green 92s I think that's why some sources say 282 were made for sale, the other 3 were trial cars or something like that. Whats your say.

 

[ViperJeff]

There were several other 92's that were never sold. I have it in my db. Granger also posted somewhere the other 92's that didn't make it to a sales sheet

Vj

Hey Jeff.

I have an easy one. I bet Sam knows it for sure. Why did they change the name of the plant to CAAP.? And what did they change specifically?

Conner Avenue is really Conner Road and the plant would have been CRAP!

 

[ViperJeff]

Lol..........

I will have to remember that

And here I was thinking it had something to do with spark plugs

I heard the CRAP story a long time ago!

#VM01 had a 360 small block V8, #VM02(1990) had cast iron truck V-10

I had a feeling you knew the answer. When I have told people that, they think I'm making **** up. lol

It's in Maurice's book if I'm not mistaken. My 1st purchase prior to actually buying a Viper.

Good job.

Yep. I always pick on the white Vipers for being the ONLY Viper to come with with a v-8. lol

BTW, that's also the car that had some Corvette parts.

Anybody know what the Viper project was originally called? It shared the name later with a never produced concept car and a Viper edition.
