eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles - Autoblog (blog)
You are also getting 20 year old rubber parts under the hood, 20 year old tires and a 20 year old plastic interior. The ad states, "Welcome to 1994. " Must've been the year this guy failed out of elementary school. The guy doesn't seem to be aware of the contraction "you're," among other glaring mistakes. If he's careless and hasty in developing an ad for a roughly $40k vehicle, I would question his maintenance habits. He seems to be a guy who is just looking to move a car and make a buck, versus an enthusiast looking for a new home for his Viper. They're going to need it. The sun (UV) is typically the biggest enemy of plastic and rubber parts. They tend to hold up very nicely if the vehicle is lightly driven and garaged when not in use. In that scenario, twenty years should not be a problem at all. I have a fair weather, pleasure use-only garage queen that I bought brand new twelve years ago and the rubber and plastic on it is still like new. Source: www.autoblog.com
