Finally joined up.

Bought my first viper last month after many years of wanting.

98 GTS, 23K miles (but will be going up rapidly)

My other fun cars in a 72 Chrysler Town and country 440 and a 67 Dart GT conv. Dumped my Scat Pack sublime Challenger for the viper.

Congrats. My first Viper was a red '98 GTS as well and couldn't drive it enough. They stopped putting the clear fog light covers on after '98 it's a nice look.

Well I know another Red Viper owner in Prospect that's going to be happy to see a twin '98 Red GTS. :D

Congrats and welcome to the Club! I'm sure our paths will cross between our Regions. We have several members / events in CT, so hopefully we get to check out your new ride.

As I always say to new Viper Owners...make sure to check out the date codes on your tires. Tread may look plentiful...but not if they are aged hockey pucks.

Good luck and enjoy!

Thank you, Just had it paint corrected and ceramic coated. It was very hazy and swirled when I got it last month and I just couldn't let it stay that way.

one of the first things i checked. They are 6 years old, But still measuring ok with a durometer (yes i am an engineering nerd) but plan to replace end of this year.

Howdy

Funny thing is i am also an engineer and used to live in the valley (wolcott)

I guess I should have stayed there, thats where the vipers are.
