I bought the world's cheapest Dodge Viper, what could possibly go wrong?
Turns out a LOT! I knew when we won this Viper for $8,000 from Copart that it was going to be the roughest I'd ever salvaged, and it was EXACTLY that! But despite some horrendous damage, things turned out pretty good!
TLDR: I have a Viper drivetrain, what do we put it in?
Have a wild Mopar build story of your own? Maybe you've bought a totaled Hellcat or Viper to turn into your dream car? Be sure to tell the story in the comments!

Your UA-cam channels name should be dodge life garage n j
ScraplifeLee can you give us an update on the gray hellcat challenger?
@@chasepelley6261 I don't want to spoil it, but it'll be back soon!
Hey man why don't you wear safety glasses when running the sawzall? I've noticed that you squint and kinda look away. Be careful with your vision. Otherwise, loving these vids!
The owner's son crashed it in Dallas. He survived but was in very bad shape. I actually bought some coilovers from the owner since he wasn't able to install them.
I bet it hurt bad..
I was thinking that was the Dallas one I remember that crashed in Addison
@@shabbos-goy9407 did you see that steering wheel ? The fact that guy survived is a miracle
@@Chris-hw4mq between the snapped center console, the pedals being twisted, but yeah i saw that steering wheel and was gonna be surprised to here they were okay
@@TheDetailLabTx i live close to addison when was it? i never heard about it
This makes the demon look like a buff out special
It’s always a good day when Lee uploads
True, for me specially when its about pulling out or installing Viper engines
Glad to hear the Original Owner Survived the Accident, Holy Sheet ! The Damage
That transition from the auction lot to the garage was fire🔥
those BBS LM faces are worth really good money. Many bolt patterns and offsets like this are long long discontinued and there are people who really want period correct wheels. If you have a few of the barrels in good shape it will go a long way. My experience for nice condition lips and barrels has been the BBS groups on facebook or Ebay.
Very unique being 6 lug aswell
Nice Lips that aren't beat up are always in demand....
Man that steering wheel is gnarly!
Youre on a serious Mopar kick
Can you imagine the speed, the driver and what it STOPPED IN.
13:42 the face of regret 😂😂😂
What about installing the viper engine in a DeLorean?
That's actually dope Copart sponsors you 🔥👊
Is the guy who crashed it alive? 😳
Following
God That Steering Wheel! 😲😳
That's the real question 😅
Looking at that wheel it’s 50/50
If so he’s got 2 badly broken wrists and possibly a caved in forehead and sternum.
I love this channel
Wow the state of the viper , some good parts for other projects , that took a beating. Can’t wait to see srt truck on the road
Build the shell with this one 🎉
This is the best UA-cam channel 🫡🫡🫡🫡 🍻🍻
WTF, someone somehow survived in that wreck?
You know someone died when they put a non repairable title on the car since the bodily fluids are in the car.
@@angelcelis9090 No it has to be Bio hazard
@@Motorsportsgeek bio hazard is usually when someone dies in the car/someone did drugs in the car. Not when it also includes a wreck with the wreck they’ll just make the title a parts only title. Like that high end Porsche crash in Scottsdale az that killed the driver but the Porsche was sold with a parts only title and no mention of the owner death.
@@angelcelis9090 Well different countries may have different laws but any blood in a crashed car here you must declare it as bio hazard.
@@Motorsportsgeek are you in the uk? I heard most cars get parts only titles out there. I remember my first auction car you can clearly tell someone hit their head against the windshield and bled all over the console. Still had a clean title somehow even tho it was wrecked and clearly someone was injured.
Where do you get that red cart under the car that can hold that kind of weight? Looking for one like this!
I call the 96 Vipers gen 1.5 because you got the Momo steering wheel from gen 1 however they went to rear exhaust which is gen 2
I liked that truck y’all building I loved those mustangs sometimes corvette too
I didn’t know you guys were in Maryland! Nice! Really close!
Saw it at the autorama. The Mario wrap was super cool
Glad to hear no one got killed it looks like Randy Orton hit the RKO on that Viper
got your demon shirt people at work loved it.
the t56 center section is the same as the 93-02 fbody. the bell housing and tail housing are no big deal
Must have been one heck of a collision.
Luv the rims
That took a beating
Not the viper video I was looking forward to, but I'll take it.
But are you excited to see the car that gets this Viper engine?
@@mangotail6808 of course I am!
Man I've been trying to get a build for a simple turbo on a honda and am having immense problems I can't imagine the amount of knowledge it takes lol one day I'll get there
21:27 The more you play around with the shaft the more likely chance you are going to go blind! 🤣🤣🤣
What kind of rolling cart is that under the car? I kinda want one that strong for myself
Oooff. I bought a low mileage f150 that hit a pole dead centre and the front of the engine looked a lot like that and after days of pissing around trying to figure out why it ran like shit I realized the crank snout get bent just enough to let the timing chain to jump.
Love the video The viper is my childhood dream car But ideal What to do of the engine There's a Dodge viper Race car chassing On Market please for 4,000 I wish I were able to get that and a Wreck viper Hopefully not as wreck as that one But hey just an idea for you guys
You should swap the engine into that ram truck behind you
My father in law was in a wreck like that when he was in his twenties. He's shown me the pictures and the steering wheel was bent exactly the same as this one. He said he just held onto it for dear life and had no injuries from it, not even any pain 😮 Must have been a huge adrenalin rush or something?!
Bro got the Gucci Mane Ice Cream tatted. BRRR⚡️
he sounds like the guy that plays the Abominable Snowman on Monsters Inc

Love the videos! What's the tattoo on the bottom of your left thumb? It looks sick, I guessed it was like a sunset reflection but wasnt sure
Needs to be a rally viper with an exoskeleton build
A ct5 project would be nice
I’ll buy that scan gauge that was on top of the steering column 😂
I'd love to see you get a 2000 Pontiac Firebird TransAm and put a nice engine in it. I was never able to get one and it's always been a dream of mine to have one.
Very nice !)
A little MEGUIAR'S Mirror Glaze and a shammy. Good as new.
My favorite Viper. The rt/10. If that were a 1st gen with side pipes and og wheels. I might have had a heart attack watching this.
Kind of reminds me of the one that crashed racing that Acura Inttegra
Well the viper book is cool
6:18 the last of the true widow maker vipers and this one looked like it forfilled its. Namesake
17:19 was funny asf
HELLCAT 350Z LETS GOOOO
I've picked up 454s with a seatbelt. 🤔 No really old belts though...
That trailer definitely dot approved
Dumb question, but ill be that guy. As a retired LEO and fellow Challenger guy, do auctions disclose if the car was involved in a fatal crash? Or would those not be allowed for auction? Thanks. Love the channel.
Me. I don't know that much about the cars. I have red hot rod magazines of the Viper parts. The Viper parts were very useful, including the proper disassembly. And sorting out all the parts on the table, including the transmission is very viable. I've been told because it is usable with Chevy and Ford parts. The tail assembly and the bell housing can be used with a Ford. And Chevy park and be really useful so it's still viable, though. It comes out of A. Dodge Viper, no Dodge Viper par that you can see the Van V10 with 450 horsepower. I've been told it is still a good engine and Dodge does not make a lot of parts for these cars. It's one of those things where a lot of people are going to like to use it. The Dodge Viper shell that's one thing that I remembered was just 1 simple thing. There in a conversation that. The rivets along the side there. When you guys were using the sauce. All can't be bought. But what you can do is use the new studs in there and replace those as a lot of usable parts in there. And that's what I used to do. Didn't know much about cars. And I still learn things about cars so Dodge Viper. I've never had too many of those but know that some of these parts are worth a lot of money still online, even if you sell it eBay, Amazon or any other auction site or just straight out personal sale or business sale But like I said, for a lot of hot rotters. The transmission in the Viper transmission and assembly. That's gonna be worth some money. Because they will use all of that. I've seen this in hot rod magazine. I've seen it in rat rotting. I've seen it in all kinds of different cars. Rat rods rust buckets rattle traps putting the V10 in a rat rod. And then those headers that look like they go out through the side and down for the side pipes. They'll actually order some parts and make them go out like zombies. I've been told that they're called zombies because they go up on the outside of the car straight up. I've seen them in traffic myself.
TT viper next?
I havr to correct you on the back window, it is glass, not lexan. The lexan you found in it was probably an aftermarket door glass.
It ran when it was parked. Unfortunately it was parked around a telephone pole …
Yellow viper !!
How does one acquire one of those wheels for a table
a Viper RT/10 is my dream car. One day I'll have the capital to afford one.
Put that V10 in a WK2 Grand Cherokee and retain the AWD.
More VIPER CONTENT
Wooo
Do me a favor, see if you can salvage the bushings and boots in the steering and front suspension. I need to replace mine
10:35 YOOOOOOOOOOOO WHATTTTTTT ?????????
I used to buy and rebuild a lot of trucks from copart and never once did they not use the bed as a dumpster when cleaning the yard... they should have paid me to take some of them lol
I kinda want that shorty viper driveshaft.
Is that the viper from fast and furious Tokyo drift 😂
The door sills that are glued on are about $400 each in value that you guys didn’t pull off just an fyi to help your cause.
You should put a viper engine in a Dodge charger or challenger
Unc got too much money to burn😂😂
UNC!?
Aunt?
unc is CRAZY😂😂😂
Looking at the steering wheel and the windshield as an EMT in my professional opinion it looks like someone was either ejected or lilled in this car.
My lucky day I stayed home from school and it is now my best decision
The car had a faster run in the mile the next day at the Texas mile. It is in a video someone posted a link to in the comments.
You should record the cars getting scrapped
cheers
Do what whistling diesel did and sell parts as decorative items, who wouldn’t want to own a piece of a viper
I would love to know the back store on these car
If that viper engine is any good, maybe try stuffing that thing inside of a early Miata
1995 was the last gen 1, 1996 was technically a gen 1.5 and the last year of no door handles and removable windows.
I thought u got the dead body in the bag with the car 😂
Edging to this rn
Ik you’re a car guy in I love you’re Video but could you do a motorcycle rebuild 😅
This is a very rare 1996 Viper, 1 of about 100 in red.
How long does it take for a package to arrive from you?
holy shit that guy what ever he hit he was rippen that thing is mangled
Who knew apple juice in the crankcase is a thing? 🙂
Google Viper crash Dallas Texas. Viper crashed into a Camaro. Driver and occupant survived. Said family of 4 was driving Camaro and the Viper traveling at a high rate of speed hit the back of it.
Oh shit! You bought the yellow viper?!
You guys should change names to wrecklife garage! Crazy buy..
Allen millyard could give you an idea for the engine😂
That is called trying give things a positive spin on an $8k content maker 😳
By the look of that steering wheel every safety feature failed😂
"You came here to watch me lose 8 grand..." I didn't come for that, I came to see what type of magic you are going to conjure to get 8 grand out of this.
Seeing my dream car in that condition 😢
Do a viper kart.
"It's out by a foot" nah it's just back in factory spec location
