That's the second or third Mopar I've seen utilizing the Viper chassis/running gear. Your scratched frame looked great! Also the A pillar repair didn't look too bad either!

Update time again, meant to do this yesterday but kept getting side tracked. Anyway I got some of the interior in and made an over sized fuel cell. Made from a cardboard cereal box (not really it's thin cardboard pretty much the same). The trunk lid has also been attached, that's about it for now.

Thanks Mike, it's hard to beat a Viper's power and handeling plus I had them laying around so I thought why not take it to the extreme. B)

Thanks Richard I appreciate your honest opinion, means a lot. I agree with you on the tail lights, the red does drown them out. I've been thinking about running some black tape across the back and see how that looks. If it don't look to bad I might spray it. Thanks again Richard! :)

Got the battery and wiring in place the fuel tank was also test mounted. The wiring is guitar string if anyone is interested.

I'd just like to let everyone know that it was finished late last night and as soon as the sun comes out and it warms up a little I'll get some pictures of it. :)
