Chrysler to start Viper sale talks in 3-4 weeks

DETROIT, Sept 23 (Reuters) - Chrysler LLC [CBS.UL] will start negotiations on the possible sale of its Viper sports car line in the next few weeks, Vice Chairman Tom Lasorda said on Tuesday.

"We've had a lot of excitement," Lasorda told reporters at an event hosted by Chrysler. "We will start negotiations in probably another three or four weeks."

Chrysler said earlier this month it has drawn interest from international and North American parties for the possible sale of its high-performance Dodge Viper sports car line. (Reporting by Kevin Krolicki, Editing by Maureen Bavdek)
