4,660-Mile 1993 Dodge Viper RT/10

Description

Originally the work of a small crew under the direction of then Chrysler President Bob Lutz, Design Chief Tom Gale, and consultant Carroll Shelby, the Dodge Viper became iconic even when it was only a concept — one first unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in 1989.

The Viper team gave the car a custom-designed tubular space-frame layout with center spine, complemented by a fully independent suspension with Koni coil-over shocks and huge 13-inch brake calipers in front. And the car’s fiberglass body saved weight. The Viper's mammoth 8.0-liter V-10 engine had originally been designed for Dodge Truck duty, but Chrysler looked to Lamborghini for help in designing a new aluminum block and heads, with some of its parts — including the two-valve-per-cylinder pushrod design — carried over. In these first Vipers, the engine was rated at 400 hp and 450 lb-ft of torque with an impressive redline of 6,000 rpm, acceleration to 60 mph came in less than five seconds, and top speed was originally 164 mph.

This 1993 Dodge Viper RT/10 shows 4,660 original miles, an average of just over 145 miles per year, and has been meticulously maintained by its owners.
