    New SRT Viper Slowly Slithers Out of the Shadows

    Monday, 20th February, 2012

    Just last month Chrysler's SRT division served up their first teaser image of the upcoming all-new Viper, cloaked ominously in the shadows. Well, SRT now reckon the time is right to charm the big snake into the light and give us the first glimpse of its new, shiny skin.

    Okay, not exactly. While the Viper has finally slithered into the light, we're still just as much in the dark as we were before. What we can tell for sure from the newest teaser SRT just released over on their Facebook page is that we're looking at a scoop that's been crafted from carbon fiber. Since it is a carbon fiber scoop on a V-10-powered serpent, we can assume it probably directs cool air somewhere, maybe to the engine, maybe to the brakes. Oh, it’s also been painted red.

    We should know what sort of function the scoop serves in April at the New York Auto Show, where SRT is planning to officially pull the wraps off of the new Viper. Until then, we’re free to debate on what exactly we’re looking at and continue to wait out the next few weeks in slow agony.

    I so hate Facebook, what a worthless site. They continue to prove why I will never open an account. No image to see and they try to pushout pop up crap and say you need to join to see an image.

    So far this Snake is not winning any points with me. It still seems ugly and I for one am not impressed with this way of trying to get interest in their Halo Car.

    ok first of all that teaser has been out for about a month. and all it tells us is SRT can Photoshop. i wont even touch the last comment and how Facebook is useful in many many ways. but i am still excited about this car. ive seen other teasers of the car under the usual cloak. it looks really impressive. smaller then the last one too.

      I'm starting to sour on Starbucks.  It has been going on for a while.  I went in and a grande (medium) Earl Grey hot tea cost me $3.75.  That's 2 bags of Earl Grey tea, hot water, a paper cup with a plastic lid, and labor ... and just how much overhead and planned profit? Not only that, they are lowering the bar on their employees who are getting dumb and dumber.

      Last day of summer, saw a gorgeous olive green ‘69 Chrysler 300 convertible rolling along top down.

      * Anyone remember me!? Been almost 2 years since I visited and posted. Life is short and unpredictable; treasure every moment. I logged into social media Saturday afternoon (09.14.2024) for the 1st time in over a year and quickly discovered a few more friends had died. One in particular from my "heart circles", Lorraine, was 1 of the 1st to meet up with me after Dan's death because she knew we'd be laughing hysterically as usual from our conversational topics; laughter was surely needed. Another, Rich, from my automotive and Route 66 circles, had shown me his 1973 Monte Carlo he bought brand new when I visited him the 1st time during my 2009 Route 66 road trip (15 years ago now); at the time, it was in his barn and covered in dust, but he'd recently gotten it out and I never had a chance to see it in person.

You can hear me ANYWHERE online or via mobile app. Check out the details, along with the playlist from the 1st broadcast last Saturday, 09.14.2024: https://www.cdshowcase.com/2024-cd-showcase/   PEACE | Cort, pig and cow valves with pacemaker 2003 MGM LS + 1981 cmc SC; need 1975 Chrysler Cordoba "I ain't ready for the junkyard yet" | George Jones | 'I Don't Need Your Rocking Chair'

      How it started: How it's going: Funny story - apparently those spark plug covers with the "4 Valve" silver lettering have been out of production for years and you can only get reproductions with no lettering or black lettering.  I knew I needed a set way back when I first bought them and grabbed them on an e-bay auction randomly only because I thought they looked better than the plain ones. I didn't realize I was grabbing something made of unobtanium.
