What is a Morrison Snake Skinner? How many were produced? What's the market for one of these? Can any of you experts direct me to some site where I can read about this (these) Vettes (all ZR-1s)? Thanks in advance for the info.

With some mods, sure they can. Bone stock most vipers are in the mid 12's since the late 90's with the GTS. Before that, the RT/10 was only in the low 13's. However the newer SRT/10's can be in the high 11's given the right conditions and driver.

Thanks all! Really appreciate your getting me started. Now I am better prepared to do some more digging. I knew about the record setting efforts of Morrison and associates, the white Snake Skinner (SS) and Doug Rippie and John Lingenfelter building their versions of the Snake Skinner. My friend and I have a lead on a "Morrison Snake Skinner" that might be available to us. I want to make sure we know what we see and make sure it's not a wannabe copy when we actually get to see this guy's much touted Vette. Would be nice to have it parked in my garage next to the late Doug Johnson's BEAST2...well I can dream can't I???
