    Roush Roush P51 Edition

    While I certainly respect & admire the accomplishments of Jack Roush throughout his racing career beginning with the old Gapp & Roush Pro Stock cars in the 70's, I just have not been that impressed with his street Mustangs. Admittedly part of my ambivalence is due to my being a Saleen...

    Roush Saleen Show @ FFW

    I think that's more like a "Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Say no more." :p

    Roush We have another dreamer!

    This listing must have been posted after I logged off of eBay late yesterday afternoon as it wasn't there @ that time. It certainly is quite filthy & you'd think someone serious about selling a car, particularly something really unique like an '85 Saleen, would at least give it a wash, let...

    Roush Saleen Show @ FFW

    OK, perhaps I'm proverbially a day (week) late & a dollar short, but I haven't read anything regarding the annual Saleen Show @ Fun Ford Weekend. I saw the photos of the Cars & Coffee gathering prior to the show on Mustangworld & the attendance of Saleens wasn't very impressive, particularly...

    Roush Another dealer trying to pass off a clone!

    I just checked Jim Campisano's 'Powered by SVT' book & confirmed that the Cobra was never offered in purple nor was white leather an interior color. Therefore this car was either repainted purple or it's a purple GT that has had the Cobra DOHC engine transplanted. Either way, it seems to...

    I've inventoried about (19) various advertisements & articles from the 1987 model year Saleens. Let me know what specifically you are interested in & I'll provide you a detailed list.

    Roush Another dealer trying to pass off a clone!

    The first give away is the actual listing title; why list it as a 2007 model if it's a 1996?!? Anyway, where to begin... The wheels are incorrect, the bumper # is faked, the gauges have fake SALEEN decals pasted over them, the console plate is obviously faked as is the underhood plate, the...

    Roush Neat saleen fox articles found!!!

    I have quite a bit of material from the 1987 model year as that was when I first began to seriously consider purchasing a Saleen Mustang. Let me take an inventory this weekend & I'll provide a list of what I currently have in my archive.

    Roush The Holy Grail?

    Having seriously considered the purchase of a S351 from Bob Baker Ford in Mission Valley (the only Saleen dealer in San Diego @ the time) during the summer of '98, I know that this owner's BIN price is about $10K higher than a fully optioned S351 w/applicable taxes & fees when it was brand new.

    Roush Neat saleen fox articles found!!!

    Not to horn in on someone else's thread &/or offer, but I also have a rather extensive collection of original articles & advertisements featuring Saleen Mustangs & other Saleen related material. By no means is it definitive, but it goes back to 1986 (I'm still trying to find any '84 - '85...

    Roush The Holy Grail?

    Is this the Holy Grail of S351's? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SALEEN-MUSTANG-GT-S351-R-All-Orig-188-Mi-510hp-1-of-1_W0QQitemZ200166156264QQihZ010QQcategoryZ6236QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem The seller certainly isn't shy about the BIN price.

    Roush Gotta vent!

    As if I don't have enough to be paranoid about with all of the wild fires raging around my neighborhood now I have to worry that my Saleen Cobra doesn't have the 3.55 Torsen differential it's documented to have. :shock: Seriously, I know for relative certainty that my dearly departed 89-0408...

    Roush 03 Cobra Saleen

    I just checked the listing & apparently the dealer has ended the auction; no doubt due to them realizing or someone informing them that the car is a fake.

    Roush 03 Cobra Saleen

    When I first saw this listing yesterday afternoon my initial reaction was "DAYUM, too bad I purchased my own SVT Saleen two years ago as I'd be all over this." I even sent the link to some of my Mustang enthusiast friends. Then I started to further scrutinize the detail photos & some of them...

    Roush 89 Notch Saleen

    I should have said "deep shadow blue" instead of "dark shadow blue." I also seem to recall that when I saw this car in Pomona it had the dark gray 5-spoke ARE wheels. If Marcus remembers this Saleen being around a year ago, perhaps he can confirm my vague memories about it (I haven't...

    Roush 89 Notch Saleen

    This looks very much like the Saleen I saw for sale in the car corral section of the Pomona swap meet in 1990-91. I attended the meet for the 1st & only time with a co-worker of mine & a couple of his friends when he was looking for parts for his '55 Chevy Bel Air street rod daily driver. I...

    Roush Saleen no longer offering factor tours

    Personally I'm not surprised. With both Steve & Liz out of the picture, the real powers that be @ Saleen Inc. are obviously cracking down on the casualness of how the previous incarnations of the company used to operate. And from what Marcus has stated in other threads, along with not so...
