You can see another one in the 2001 SEMA show car called 'PT-10 Cruiser.'
Do not ask how they managed that one. I have a picture and it is an amazing
fit-to-size. Maybe they use a large over-size shoehorn.
I have already asked for the price of selling the car after the SEMA show.
The return remarks...they laughed.
However, with the 2000 Dakota, you can purchase the truck for 44K from
Chuck. His reasoning for a big V-10 motor? He does not want everyone to
gawk at him on the road in a Viper. You go figure...

A viper motor in a reg. dakota! Oh my god! I thought the V-10 68'
Charger in this months Mopar Muscle was cool. Wow, im just blown away.
That thing must either be a thrill to drive or a real terror. One day
i'll do some crazy engine swap, tell then the 318 will do. Later.
