    Counting MEDUSA, TARGA, and VLF vehicles produced

    I have been looking for some specific pictures on MEDUSA's and TARGA's for my projects and was surprised I could not find them very easily, well the pictures I was looking for. So, I decided to post what I have found in the way of accountability of the cars I know about:

    Sources say 15 MEDUSA's Produced by PREFIX at a cost of $35,000 for the conversion

    06 2014 FORCE-1 1C3ADEBZ0EV100020 - VFL Hood - Pearl Black MEDUSA converted to a VLF Convertible - for Private Collector - May have new VIN if VLF re-registered it - spring of 2018 when I last saw it.

    Last VLF Force-1 built was sometime in October of 2018.

    On the VLF there are articles that state there a 4 Coups and 1 Roadster - However, I saw the second Roadster being built with paddle shifters. Not sure why there are 5 VIN's out there for Coups but that is what I found (312 and 318 maybe the ones that should be one or the other as all the others match but the last digit, they also have the same interiors in both cars but the research show two different years for them - BJ-Motors bought 50 GTS Vipers for production into VLF Force-1 vehicles as they were the exclusive sponsor/dealer for these vehicles. As a result of the VLF production not being completed, BJ Motors has a ton of VLF rims because they never followed through with the conversion on all the vehicles and BJ motors procured the rims, suspension, and controllers for these vehicles. Originally, when VLF received the vehicles, they just threw away most of the Viper panels as well as headlights and taillight. That is where I came in, I talked to VLF, on the day the Conner Plant closed its doors forever, about selling the parts instead of trashing them. The only part we could not come to an agreement on was the 2-vent hoods which, to this day, have very little desirability by the Viper community making the selling of the hoods a monumental task.

    There was a Blue Targa with red interior and a Prefix 9.0L installed. To me that’s the perfect Viper. Yours may be that car. Plz offer it to me if you get bored with it.

    Wow, so you were the lucky guy. What an awesome deal Prefix was offering at the time. Beautiful car. Looks like you put the ACR wheels on?

    Yep. Black Chromed the ACR wheels and put CCM brakes on. Prefix dismantled and repainted the entire car before I took possession. Since they painted all the Gen V vipers I figured they would do it right. They did, the car looks brand new. Then PPF fascia, hood , sills, roof panel and rear wheel area.

    I wanted a Targa so bad. But missed the boat and they stopped doing them by the time I got a Gen5. I would gladly drop the $10k to day to have the conversation done.

    I was lucky enough to get a ride in this very car. PREFIX brough this car down to MOPAR Nats in OH. the year they unveiled it. Very cool.

    How do you imagine the convertible would look with a TA 2.0 or ACR wing? Can't seem to find any photos via Google.

    The black and silver sold at Barrett Jackson New England in 2018. I wanted that car so bad when I was there. Wish I had the funds to pull the trigger at the time.

    see pic above (jwalk's post)

    I remembered those 2 purple cars and checked my viper quarterly magazines for the article (VQ22)

    Figures quoted are 15 Medusa's in total. the last 4 did not have plaques or serial numbers
