Anybody know anything about the preproduction GTS at South Puget Sound Comm College

[wolowski007]

I'm trying to figure out what the full VIN is of the pre-production GTS that is at South Puget Sound Community College. It was reportedly #004, but it wasn't clear if that meant it was from the 1996 production, from a prior year, or what. It's the one that Chrysler wanted crushed back in 2014 but got a reprieve after it got a loud public outcry against crushing it. I feel like I had seen someone post a couple of pictures, including the VIN tag, but I'm not sure if it was here or on a different Viper forum. But I have been entirely unable to find it.

Does this ring a bell with anyone? Can you point me to either the thread or the photo of the VIN tag? Thanks.

I think I remember the story although I can’t help more than that. I thought Chrysler donated the car for vocational training and it had a date for destruction based on either a real date or when the school was done with it. It hit all the big media when it was set for destruction, but I thought that was it. Crazy if it’s still out there and I would expect the vin is flagged so it can’t be registered.

To FCA; If these cars have to be destroyed, at least pull the windshields, headlights, etc. - anything DOT certified - if you are not going to make any of these parts again.
