THATS RIGHT VIPER ENGINE

Named Jalopnik's number one car with a viper engine. 

Here's the ultimate in sleeper transportation and the top in our list for baddest-asp Viper powered rides. As you all know, here at Jalopnik, we love anything El Camino or anything that’s been El Camino-ized and when you mix it with a 500bhp Viper V10; how can you go wrong? While we admit, it’s still a PT Cruiser, we still get a little tingly down there at the thought of running up and down Gratiot Ave in this thing. The look of horror on the face of your opposition would be priceless and is more than worth the price of admission.

Bob Fehan Director of SVE "Specialty Vehicle Engineering" division of Decoma, a Tier 1 supplier, built the PT/10 atop a custom tube frame and it features a unique front grille, front fascia, taillights, a custom rear roll pan, rear bed, spoiler and side exhaust, Viper 6 speed, seats and stearing wheel. Hiding behind the BBS wheels are a set of Wilwood brakes and a custom airlift suspension to make sure the PT/10 can handle as well as haul ass. Fehan said AL Power President of Decoma always challenged him to create the most unique vehicles based off current production models. The PT/10 won the award for “Best Overall Concept” at the 2001 SEMA show in Las Vegas. We want one. NOW.
