Wonder where these cars are now?
Just scanned a few of my old photographs,

Wonder where these two are now?
I think these were taken around 2001/2002 These Two RT/10s belonged to two friends of mine

I found M146SMP for my friend Keith who fancied owning a Viper, I used to do the Oil changes on it and Light service work on the car for him, in return I got to take the car out on my own as often as I wanted.
The Next friend of mine to get a Viper was Steve, he purchased his car from Bramleys in Surrey, he also asked me to go with him to check the car over :)
Steves car is L521WOW, he did not have the car for long, it was not for him.

Now being as both my friends had 400 bhp Vipers, I had to find something a bit cheaper that I could afford, I found a Cobra replica fitted with a dry sump TVR Tuscan challenge series full race engine kicking out 400 bhp, I telephoned my friends to tell them I had Joined the 400 club :D (The Blue Cobra in the middle of the two red Vipers was mine)

Here's a couple more pics of "Christine" (Named from the Stephen King film of a possessed car) That's a whole different story!

Cool... thanks for posting! Reminds me of the annual Snakes on the hill event in PA just more retro.
