IF YOU ARE INTERESTED EMAIL ME AT: bartbccronenberg@watfordfans.com . 1998 Dodge Viper GTS Coupe. Silver with Blue stripes. One of a kind Turbo Viper. I am the second owner, this car
was bought brand new by the guy I bought it from. He is a 75 year old dentist and took amazing care of this car.
When the car had roughly 30,000 miles on it he sent it to Super Viper Systems inc. in Chicago Illinois to perform
the transformation. SVS is now closed but before the old man retired they were the premier Viper builder in the
country. Look them up they are well known and thought of in the viper community. The car is now a 1000hp beast of a
super car. Will do well over 200 and handle it with ease. Has Motec traction control and is so easy to drive. I
will include a video link below.Here is a breakdown of what has been done:
Trans:
The trans was sent to John Denato to be rebuilt in order to handle the new power the engine would produce. If you
don't know who John Denato is just google him. He is the man to go to when it comes to Viper transmissions. The
trans is more then capable of handling the 1000+ hp. A Kevlar clutch and Billet Aluminum flywheel were also
installed. Trans cooler and remote trans oil pump were also installed. At high speeds the g forces pull all the oil
to the back of the trans which starves the front bearing. There is a switch on the console that activates the
remote trans oil pump and recircs the trans oil to the front bearing for periods of sustained high speed driving.
Everything on this car was made to be driven at 200+ and handle it!!
Engine:
The engine was torn down and completely machined and the block was O ringed. Balanced and blue printed with 8.4 JE
pistons Custom big valve aluminum heads, T&D Rockers, Comp cam w/ roller lifters, Individual coil packs per
cylinder. Accusump oil system. Squires rear mount turbo system was installed with its own oil pump and
intercooler. 4 core aluminum radiator with dual fans. Custom made headers from SVS that are plumbed to the turbo
and then to a custom single exit center rear exhaust that sounds absolutely amazing. Videos can not do the sound
justice. This car turns EVERY head when it goes by. Sounds like a pissed off indy car :) The engine is controlled
by a MoTec management system complete with traction control and flex fuel system. Car is currently tuned to run on
E85 at 12 psi of boost. There is a knob on the dash that has additional tunes and boost levels loaded in. The car
is still tuned for sea level so it is running a bit rich at the elevation here in Colorado. The engine is capable
of handling plenty more boost on race fuel but this thing is already a monster at 12psi. It is putting around 840hp
to the wheels on this set up.
Brakes:
The brakes were also upgraded. Up front there is 8 piston Brembo big brake kit complete with stainless brake lines.
Suspension:
KW clubsport coilover suspension was installed. The car was corner balanced and the coilovers were all custom
tuned accordingly. Again everything on this car was built to do 200+ and handle it.
Rear:
3:55 Gears. 1000hp half shafts. Drive shaft loop. Half shaft loops.
Misc:
BBS 3 piece 18"wheels ( Right rear wheel has some curb rash on the lip)
Brand new Hoosier R7 Road racing tires. Super sticky!!!
Carbon fiber cowl
Shroth 5 point harness'
Shift light
Boost gauge
The list is endless on this car. There is over 200k that went into the build of this car and it shows. I am sure I
have forgotten some things. This car is absolutely amazing and built very well. One look at this car and its
condition and it is obvious this car has never been raced or beaten on. This is not your typical car that someone
just threw a turbo on and cranked up the boost. This car was built with NO expense spared and the list above proves
that. I can not stress how nice the fit and finish is on this car. This thing idles through town with great street
manners but when you put your foot down hold on!!! This thing is a time machine!!! By far the fastest Viper I have
driven. The Motec traction control works flawlessly and is amazing, you can easily put your wife behind the wheel
with no worries The sound this thing makes is intoxicating and must be heard in person to be appreciated. I have
some documentation on the build but not all of it. However I do have contact info for the guys that built it as
well as the original owner who commissioned the build. The buyer will get all this info with the car.

Ron Burgundy returns for four more Dodge Durango ads
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Dodge has released several more of its Anchorman 2-themed commercials, starring Will Ferrell as inept newsreader Ron Burgundy. The four spots, one of which is a sequel to a previous commercial, follow roughly the same pattern as previous ads, with Ferrell's Burgundy misunderstanding or generally making a fool of himself. For some of the ads, though, Burgundy is selling more than just Durangos - the red-suited host of San Diego's most watched news broadcast shilling the entire Dodge lineup.
We've included all four ads down below, and you can also hope over to our original posts to see some of the older commercials. Oh, and if you're getting tired of these - we aren't, aside from the Do-dge spot - just remember that Ferrell reportedly filmed around 70 ads for Dodge.
Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
Stellantis won't race to split electric vehicles from fossil fuel cars
Fri, May 6 2022MILAN - Stellantis is not considering splitting its electric vehicle (EV) business from its legacy combustion engine operation, its finance chief said on Thursday, as the carmaker presented above-expectation revenue data for the first quarter. Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer told analysts he did not see huge benefits in the kind of separations pursued by rivals such as France's Renault and U.S. Ford. "We need to manage the company and the assets we have through this transition," he said. "There are benefits to having the cash flow being generated by the internal combustion business for the investments we need to make." Palmer said the group, formed by a merger last year of Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot maker PSA, was not averse to considering adjusting its structure "but we aren't anticipating any big changes." Palmer's comments came after the world's fourth largest carmaker said its net revenue rose 12% to 41.5 billion euros ($44.1 billion) in the January-March period, as strong pricing and the type of vehicles sold helped offset the impact of the semiconductor shortage on volumes. That topped analyst expectations of 36.9 billion euros, according to a Reuters poll. Milan-listed shares were up 0.5% by 1415 GMT, in line with Italy's blue-chip index. The impact of the chip crunch was evident in the decline in shipment figures which fell 12% in the quarter to 1.374 million vehicles. It was a similar story for Germany's BMW which posted higher revenues on Thursday and a decline in car sales. Riding the Recovery Stellantis, whose brands also include Citroen, Jeep and Maserati, confirmed its 2022 forecasts for a double-digit adjusted operating income margin, after 11.8% last year, and a positive cash-flow despite supply and inflationary headwinds. Morgan Stanley analysts said after the results that Stellantis had better management than many peers and benefited from its significant exposure to a stronger U.S. economy and a European recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. They also said it was less affected by a slowing Chinese economy. Palmer said it was important for the group to maintain double-digit margins and keep delivering positive cash flows. "A 12% increase in revenue with a 12% decrease in volumes indicates a very strong performance on price and mix, which augurs well for our margin performance," he said. He said semiconductor supply problems were expected to ease this year with continued improvements in 2023.
