Yup, my uncles 1994 pushing about 480 horse, sounds like a demon too. He took the picture right after we got back from checking on how the restoration of his '32 Ford Coupe is going.

He was gona let me drive it for a bit, but my parents said no. I guess it is for the better, if anything happend to it I wouldn't want to be responsible. The car is in perfect condition. Only 4,000 miles put on it since he bought it in '94. It's got about 480horse.
I'll get some pics of the '32 once it is restored, right now I just have pictures of during the restoration process. In fact I just took some of the body after it was sand blasted. We were talking with the guy making the engine today, it's decided that a 327 in the old style is going in, my uncle wanted a 454 but didn't want to have to stretch the frame. It will look real sharp when it is done.

Incredable, the force is so strong that you can't lift your hands up, you better have good grip on the wheel. What's weird though is at low speeds the thing kinda rocks back and forth and bucks, but at high speeds it feels great and sounds even better. You get the feeling from the car like it wants to go faster, it performs best at over 90mph. The only bad thing is if your heavy on the pedal it sucks gas. We did about 50 miles and used up 1/4 a tank.

Thats a cool car, for being stock. You can make it fast by adding a folgers can on the back, and some plastic around the bottom. A new bolt on wing and some ghey interior lights would make it uber cool. P1imp.

My uncles, yea he is getting the '32 restored by a guy who holds a record out on the salt flats. I forget his name, but he only works on about 2 cars a year and my uncles is one of them. The Viper...who knows.....never taken it to a track since the modifications had been done.
These are the stock specs:
Maximum Speed: 165 mph
0-60: 4.6 sec.
1/4 Mile Time: 12.9 sec @ 113.8 mph
Not bad for a car as heavy as the Viper.
