    2009 Acr

    I'm sorry for my lack of definition but I was talking about coupes not rag tops. The 1996 and 2004 cars you refer to are convertibles but you are right in regards to the color. I did not know about the 3 1996 GTS cars in white, must have been not retailed vehicles.

    2009 Acr

    You would know best but I remember the engine compartment had a hard time housing that V6, very tight to the side panels and I also remember it being stuffed up against the cowl! The rear would need some serious beefing to handle a lot of torque as would the alcoa chassis I would think.

    2009 Acr

    When the Prowler first came out Montel Williams tried to stuff a chevy small block into one and could not make it work. His car was 1997 purple and they are very rare cars and they had no luck from what I remember. Of course that was ten years ago and like anything they must have found a way by...

    2009 Acr

    Totally agree with you and it will be rare! Love the plate idea although CT only allows six charecters so we'll have to shorten it up somehow. Thanks for all the positive feedback guys!!!

    2009 Acr

    HHGT, FYI, Dodge has only made white twice prior to '09, in 1998 and again in2006 with the VOI car. In each case they only made 100 units, not sure how many 2009 White ACR's will be built but my guess is way under 100. Also is your 2001 Prowler a Chrysler or a Plymouth? I had one of the last...

    2009 Acr

    This is the car I ordered from Chuck at Tator's Dodge albeit I'm not sure if the white driver's stripe will be available. Might do the stripe in either red (to match the calipers) or blue. Any thoughts...BD

    Viper Wizard is in NY Metro / Westchester

    Chuck is one of the good guys in the industry. His dealership is a throw back in time and his word is his word. I just ordered a 2009 ACR from him (white with a black center stripe, not sure what color i'm doing the driver stripe in) and am happy to have given him some business after what he...

    tire replacement

    Just replaced rear rubber on my GT. For anyone in the NY/NJ area who is looking for a professional shop to do some mounting and balancing check out Paddock Performance in Haverstraw, NY. I dealt with Ken and Niles and they were great. They have the road force GSP9700 balancing machine and treat...

    Tires are toast

    Thanks for the input guys, I have the luxury of not being in a rush for it has gotten cold here in CT and my car is very loose due to the cold and the tires looking like slicks at this point. Almost lost it on Sunday in 40 degree weather so be careful to all you cold weather regions out there. I...

    Tires are toast

    I've heard they are nice compound and handling but heard that about being on other cars, not the GT. What made you order them Kumar?

    Tires are toast

    Do they offer the PS2 in the factory sizes and if so what is the rough price for all four? I can't afford to change out the wheels to 19 and 20.

    Tires are toast

    5k and the rears are done. Anyone gone away from the Goodyear F1's to a different type of tire. I was wondering if anyone has gone with the big lettered Goodyear DOT slicks. Thanks...

    Axle Failure for the SECOND time

    Not unlike when the early Prowlers came out. Alcoa was producing the chassis and although only 300 or so Prowlers were built in 1997 which was their first year, Chrysler stopped production for a whole freakin' year and got it right. Something about the heat treating of the chassis was inferior...

    2005 GT sells for $150k at Barrett-Jackson

    Well said KV. Man the buyer got hosed and the seller probably knew what he was getting in to.

    2005 GT sells for $150k at Barrett-Jackson

    That is correct, B-J whacks both buyer and seller. I do believe they raised it to 10% this year so that means the seller got 135k for the car not counting his expenses to get it there etc. Not a smart place to sell this type of car although down the road it might be a great place to sell one...

    How was your GT buying experience? Here's mine.......

    Sorry for your troubles and like everyone else I'm going to try to ease the pain a little. In June of 2005 I purchase a brand new Copperhead Viper out on Long Island, NY. Went out to pick up the car and noticed that the left rear sidewinder wheel had been chunked, probably by a torque wrench. No...

    Ford Gt Crash!!! The Car Is An Amazing Testament To Engineering!

    I think we have had this conversation before if my memory serves me. It sometimes takes more balls then sense to walk away Neilda. As I said in my initial post on this thread, vehicles can be replaced and people can't. You did the right thing, now you have a motorcycle with four wheels. The...

    Ford Gt Crash!!! The Car Is An Amazing Testament To Engineering!

    Mine was on a 1974 Z-1 Kawasaki 900 drag bike. I think what saved me was that the damn thing had no turning radius to begin with so the bars did not have far to go once they started slapping. The bike runs 9.50's even with my 245 lbs. on it. What a ride...:eek Dan
