Re: Viper Edition dakota?

The Sr-71 is built and marketed by Constant Velocity .

It uses a 5.9L V8 , optional 6-speed , and standard viper independant front
and rear suspension .

The reason the fenders are so damn wide is that they can't make the viper
rear any narrower (yet) .

This truck only started out as a regular or R/T Dakota from Dodge and was
modified beyond that .
