1) Fiat-Chrysler has ordered this rare Dodge Viper to be destroyed
2) They're washing it with a floor brush! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...destroyed.html

if it was donated, chrysler should have no say in what happens to the car. End of discussion.
Damn, that must be a nice expensive school. We worked on civics and pontiacs lol. |

In the article, there's a clear indication that under the contract provided by Chrysler for the donation of the car, they would be able to order the destruction of the car at their descretion even after being donated.
It would be interesting to read that contract. It mentions several times that reason why Chrysler is ordering the destruction of the Viper is because it has lost it's educational value. I wonder if in the contract, if it states that the educational value of the car is also under the judgement of Chrysler. If not, I feel like the school could put forth some courses involving the car. But I think this is unlikely as it's stated in the article that the car is still currently bring used to attract students to the school for various purposes. One if which includes enrollment into certain classes. So clearly, the educational value is there, but Chrysler has made it to where they could destroy the car whenever. I doubt it's for insurance purposes like the article eludes to. |
