Yes, a Viper. You know it; burst onto the automotive scene in the early ’90s from a revitalized Chrysler, like anything plucked from the pages of a cartoon. Now, a YouTuber named SuperfastMatt has spent the better part of the last twelve months cutting one to install a special design. Off-road piece of equipment.
Manufacturer Matt Brown describes it more as a rally than a so-called safari build, drawing a line between this creation and models such as the Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato or the Porsche 911 Dakar.
Brown brought his Sawzall to a clever part of the body, creating a kind of technique and departure angles never imagined by Viper’s assemblers at the Conner Avenue plant. The car has been raised about twelve inches, although it retains some of the original. Wild design elements, such as the side tubes and the most recognizable parts of its outrageous front styling.
One main difference between this version and others we’ve noticed (either online or with our own eyes) is that Brown stays true to the gigantic amounts of computer-aided design for suspension work. screws and hoping for the best.
The transmission has a different geometry than the original, the frame has been cut for welding and the control arms are completely customized. Unsurprisingly, there was a lot of trial and error in the process.
This is a device that its manufacturer can claim, as it should be, that it is working and driving, as shown in the video above. What’s next? An off-road trip, where you will actually learn new classes. Imagine watching that thing slowly move toward you, Hell’s Revenge in Moab. This cartoon slice of Hot Wheels Americana powered by a V10 engine will definitely make no Viper ever go before. .
