The Dodge Sidewinder was a concept car shown by Dodge in 1997 at the SEMA convention[1] in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was based on a design by Chrysler's Mark Allen,[2] only two years after he graduated from design school. Officially called the Dodge Dakota Sidewinder, it used the front-mounted, Viper GTS-R engine to power the rear wheels, sitting on a chassis built by Riley & Scott.[2] It was envisioned as the futuristic version of a Dodge Dakota convertible.
