Shelby's original Viper chassis design

When I went to the Marty Yacoobian/Ric Cole Shelby auction in Newport Beach a few years ago, where they sold a lot of leftover Shelby Dodge project stuff (including half a dozen Dodge cars), there was a spine frame chassis, a lot like a Lotus Elan but larger, that was touted as "Shelby's Viper chassis design." I was wondering if anyone has a picture of this or knows if Chrysler even looked at it, because it seems like Dodge went and developed a Viper chassis by themselves and I don't remember anyone saying it had a Shelby designed chassis.

Also are there any good articles , lengthy interviews, about Shelby and his Viper involvement, maybe in a Viper magazine? I'd like to buy a copy if someone has such an article.
Thanks
