Hey everyone. I finally picked up the one. 1997 Viper GTS. 23,000 miles. Documents galore, and well taken care of. Best of all she was hiding 20 minutes from my house. Almost totally stock except larger rear rotors. Already ordered K&N's, billet power steering pullet/bracket. Iphone interface to the stock CD player, Short shifter shaft, Power steering vent tube, and clutch pedal adjuster. Tires will be next. Thinking about a different wheel though so I have more tire options. Can't wipe the stupid smile off my face.

HEY! I know that car.....

Glad U are thinking of tires.....DO check the production-dates of your tires. Old, Hard-Hockey-puck rubber can still look good, but have little traction. I can attest that they are NOT the OE tires.....but they still could be 10+ years old and therefore dangerous with 450+HP

Chris, Plz Call for more info: JonB 360-837-3937

Jon, I will give you a call. I actually have some stuff coming from you right now. Until I got my first order from you I didn't realize you were so close. Ya I checked the dates on the tires, and I WILL be ordering new ones to say the least. I just am thinking about going with a larger wheel for more tire options. Jon I take it you knew the previous owner of the car?

Nice photos. Did you buy it locally? If you did I may have seen it before. I have always loved the Blue and White GTS coupes.

I did buy it locally. Super lucky on finding it. Most 97 blue/whites for sale were in either Texas, or Florida. So when I saw this pop up just 20 minutes away with the low miles, and great overall condition. It was meant to be. :)
