It has been for sale for a couple of years now. Kind of goofy looking, but uber rare. I've seen one in person and they look better than the pictures. I love my Saleen and I love my Ranger. Why not combine the two?

Thats pretty cool for 88 I'm not gonna lie. And ya it looks kinda goofy, but its still pretty neat. However I don't like the 'thing' behind the rear window. They must've been thinking "lets give it a big-ass blindspot!"

Like Foxmustangman said, for the year it was made in, it is pretty cool. Kinda weird, but definitely different than any 1988 pickup ive ever seen.. lol

Why wouldn't they put the 5.0 in it though?

Whats that extra piece on the seat for? Looks like you could pop your feet up and recline to get a bj from your girlfriend.. haha

But those are Mustang seats, with the leg extension that pulls forward. All of the sport seats in our cars have them, most people just don't know its a moveable peice.

That thing is dead grotty! And they didn't even beef up the v6. It's like taking a dog turd and covering it with ice cream sprinkles.

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

That one has popped up on this site and ebay several times over the last five years. There is also one running around in gainesville. Too bad saleen couldnt do something to the motor to make it a little more appealing. A stock 2.9 doesnt exactly thrill me when I pop the hood.
