Hey guys I'm new to the forum and thought I would take some time to introduce myself and my current project. I started with a '53 Plymouth Belvedere I found on craigslist for a few hundred dollars. Only a few weeks prior I had purchased a 1st Gen Viper motor and was still deciding what to do with it. I'll spare you the long version but I couldn't afford to buy all Viper suspension so I settled on all C4 Corvette stuff. Thus the Vipette was born. My goals are to try and integrate some sort of TCS/ABS into all of this, I'm sure you are all well aware of the article in Hot Rod magazine that sparked my interest. I've been working on this project for a few months now, currently it's on hold until I return home after this extended business trip.

Thanks in advance for any interest!
