Dodge Viper parts car??
I have a 2006 Dodge Viper that was involved in a very bad accident two years ago, I have been holding on to it for no real reason. Is there a market for these parts or should I let the salvage company take the car, They are willing to give me a few thousand dollars for the motor and transmission.

You can probably do better than a few thousand (I'm guessing 5ish?) for the engine, drivetrain, ECU and wiring harness alone.

The new Challenger is just begging for a Viper drivetrain.

Good idea Scott but I need to start getting rid of some of the stuff sitting around the garage. I had actually kept it thinking I would stuff that drivetrain into a Cobra Chassis.

BTW, I don't approve, but it's not up to me. I wouldn't put it in a street rod like a '32 either. But somewhere behind me would be appealing. |

Find an old K-car Wagon, and stuff the drivtrain in that. Since its a wagon, you could do some mini tubbing of the back to get some meat in it.
That would keep it a mopar theme, and wagons, well they are just cool. |

I think the salvage value is only a few hundred dollars . . . and I'm not just saying that because I want to see a V10 K-Car wagon. What a sleeper that would be. How about a Neon?
Mark, why not just pull the parts and scrap the chassis?

I am getting ready to pick up a used 360 so I am selling my 355 and I am getting rid of some of the junk sitting in my garage, considering I am keeping all my Porsche stuff something has to go. I also am selling said Cobra Chassis w/Body and suspension parts

Spy Shots: Viper SRT10-powered Dodge Challenger caught in public
by Zach Bowman (RSS feed) on Apr 23rd 2010 at 12:28PM We had nearly forgotten about the Dodge Challenger SRT10. It's not that we don't love the idea of forcing the 8.4-liter V10 from the mighty Dodge Viper into the nose of Chrysler's muscle car, it's just that cars built for SEMA typically have a shelf life shorter than an unpeeled banana. So it came as some surprise when our keen-eyed spy shooters happened to spot the roided-out 600-horsepower Challenger cruising around public streets. For whatever reason, the car had been let loose from the company test center, and was spotted doing ridiculously pedestrian things like parking in lots and obeying traffic laws. You know, instead of leading high-speed pursuits from one gas station to the next or making entire warehouses of tires weep for their tortured brethren. As much as we'd love to stroke your crazed dreams of a production Challenger SRT10, the truth probably has more to do with the fact that some lucky soul managed to sneak the car past the suits at HQ for a quick run around town. Still, with the Viper singing its swan song and a few shelves of V10s lying around and looking forlorn, it's not too much of a stretch to imagine a limited production run of the Challenger SRT10 that would send both the Chevrolet Camaro SS and the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 into fear-induced convulsions. Hey, it doesn't cost us anything to dream. ![]() |

Oops. Forgot Vipers were V10. Still thinking about an e30 V12 conversion.

Kelly Moss was working on a viper powered 60's mopar. I wonder if it ever got finished. You should be able to get $4-5K for the motor and tranny.

I was wondering why I had not seen that car around, I would venture that someone would want that car to rebuild. Is it very bad?
