Some people are stuck on one brand of car

Like my friend who seems to have a thing for Dodge (Mopar) vehicles











The purple Lincoln Town Car was my rental car, not part of his fleet



We went for a little ride in the hills









Later we had a little race up to Ridge winery, which as the name implies is at the top of a hill. My only advantage was the road was so windy that my "little" Elan could do the hairpin corners much faster than his fat Viper. Otherwise, I was totally outgunned.

Cheers,

You would have to ask him ... my pal was so infatuated with Vipers that he tried to get Dodge to make him a Plum Crazy Viper — eventually they said no, too much trouble. He is Viper Quarterly Editor, Founding President of the Viper Owners Association, Vip... 

Vipers are interesting . . .

. . . just not personally compelling. Vintage E-bodies - that's another matter entirely. Way back when, one of my pals had a '70 440 GTX. That was a ride and a half. Art

Your friend is a bit like me on cars. I am stuck on Honda. I own my third Honda in a row. I drove a Volkswagen, and it was a great car. I like Dodge, because it is for me the real American muscle car ever. I dream to own a Chellenger. I want a Corvette, N...

Great pics. How old are they though, somewhere in the mid 90s?

Judging by the Viper’s tags, 1994
