The inventory includes everything from body panels painted in discontinued colors to scratched wheels the factory couldn&#8217;t sell. Also included are the tooling to reproduce certain parts in the future and memorabilia like the body panels from the Viper Competition Coupe that raced a U.S. Air Force F-16 fighter jet. <\/p>\n<p>Some parts will be kept in museums, but the spare parts will be sold through a new company founded by the club called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.viperpartsofamerica.com\/\">Viper Parts of America, Inc.<\/a>, the proceeds from which will go towards supporting club activities.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-dodge-viper-acr-x\/low\/\">2010 Dodge Viper ACR-X<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-dodge-viper-acr-x\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/01-viper-acr-x-press_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-dodge-viper-acr-x\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/02-viper-acr-x-press_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-dodge-viper-acr-x\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/03-viper-acr-x-press_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-dodge-viper-acr-x\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/04-viper-acr-x-press_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-dodge-viper-acr-x\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/05-viper-acr-x-press_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/24\/viper-club-of-america-acquires-spare-parts-from-chrysler\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Viper Club of America acquires spare parts from Chrysler<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/24\/viper-club-of-america-acquires-spare-parts-from-chrysler\/\">Viper Club of America acquires spare parts from Chrysler<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 24 Feb 2010 18:00:00 EST.
