1997 Dodge Viper Gts on 2040-cars
Broadwater, Nebraska, United States
If you have any questions or would like to view the car in person please email me at: ulrikeubbunge@rpgfans.com .
Up for sale is my all original 1997 Dodge Viper GTS in the iconic blue with white stripe color scheme. It is no
surprise these cars are appreciating in value, they turned the automotive world on its head when they debuted.
Still to this day, the Blue/White 96/97 GTS is THE car people think about when they think of a Dodge Viper. The 97
cars were improved upon with a better interior and forged vs cast wheels. My car has 15100 pampered, original miles
and is in excellent condition mechanically and cosmetically. The only reason I'm selling it is to be in a position
to add a Murcielago to the garage. The only imperfection is a factory defect you will find with every original GTS
that has not had prior bodywork....side sill bubbling. On top of each side sill where it meets the hood, there are
a couple of raised sections that occur from the heat of the exhaust. I have chosen not to have them fixed as I
prefer my cars to be as original as possible. As such, I have put the original fuel door on, instead of the MGW one
pictured. Tires have over 80% tread life. Engine, transmission, clutch and brakes all operate exactly as they
should. I am not interested in trades.

Dodge Viper recall requires small-handed mechanics
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It has been over a year since Chrysler first announced its recall of 3,660 2003-2004 Dodge Vipers because the airbag could suddenly deploy. The repairs are finally beginning, and it appears to be a nightmare for mechanics.
According to the automaker's filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag control module can fail, which causes the bag or the seatbelt pre-tensioner to deploy without warning. It took over a year to design the new parts, according to The New York Times. However, Chrysler finally has a new "jumper harness with an in-line diode filter circuit" ready to fix the problem.
The dilemma now moves to the mechanics who have to actually install the part. A 47-step guide from Chrysler explains that the procedure should take about two hours. It's not an easy job, though. Most of the dashboard has to be taken apart, and the instructions include this helpful bit of advice: "Installing the jumper harness and filter box into position is not an easy task. Patience, perseverance, and small hands are required." We wish the best of luck to them. The fix comes just in time for the Vipers to enjoy the summer sun.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
