The Dodge Viper RT/10 roadster arrived in 1992 as a Cobra homage built around a truck-derived 8.0-litre V10 engine producing 400 horsepower in a tubular steel chassis with a fibreglass body. In 1996, Chrysler's Team Viper answered the European GT challenge directly with the GTS coupe — fixed roof, double-bubble glasshouse, rear shoulder humps, and a choice of ACR (American Club Racing) suspension package. Heritage Icons renders the GTS in aerial plan view, the most honest silhouette available: long wedge nose, wide haunches, the double-bubble roof in outline, and a speed-blur halo that acknowledges the car was built for Pikes Peak, Le Mans GT2, and American Supercars simultaneously. The circular format with arc text annotations — American Coachbuilt Performance, 8.0L V10, Rear Wheel Drive, Born 1995, Legend Endures — reads as a technical data plate for an object that resisted the category of production car.
