During the third week of September 2017 I attended the largest Classic Car Show on Long Island as I try to do each year. It is a 2 day event due to over 1000 cars attending and is located at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow, NY. The first day is a theme day as last year was devoted to 50 years of Mustangs. This years theme on the first day was Muscle Cars and they were there on the second day with the rest of the shows 1000 cars. While walking through this glorious field of every car you could imagine I saw this bright yellow car that was away from others and I knew it was a Dodge Viper that I wanted to get a great shot of before everyone came around it. I was lucky to run into the owner who told me that he was the original owner and that the car has and still can do up to 150 mph. I asked him if he could open the over sized hood so I could see the engine and take some more pictures. With the hood opened outward and the over sized tires on this car for speed I started to take various photos even of the gorgeous black interior. For more on this fantastic Dodge Viper please feel free to read below;
The Dodge Viper was a sports car manufactured by Dodge (SRT for 2013 and 2014), a division of FCA US LLC from 1992 through 2017 having taken a brief hiatus from 2010-2013. Production of the two-seat sports car began at New Mack Assembly in 1991 and moved to Conner Avenue Assembly in October 1995. The car is spartan, although it features inflatable lumbar support and adjustable seats. Along with the absence of exterior door handles, the vehicle lacks side windows and a roof. Although a soft top cover was available, it was designed primarily for indoor vehicle storage. Side curtains of fabric and clear plastic operated by zippers can be inserted into the door and hand-bolted when needed. All of these decisions were made to reduce weight. The battery is located in the sealed compartment over the rear wheels to increase rear-end weight and traction. The car shipped with a tonneau cover and video tape on soft-top assembly (the soft top is removable and folds to fit in the trunk). In 1994 the car came, for the first time since release with several options available to the buyer. These included air conditioning, adjustable suspension, larger diameter wheels to accommodate larger brakes, and a fiberglass hardtop for the roof.
