Roush Any legal issue selling saleen engine plaque?

I don't think there would be any legal issues Joe. You will burn in hell for taking it though.

I'm only joking. Seriously, Saleen just spent $700,000 to pay off that EPA fine. They are cleaning house again and closing Fairbanks. Do you really think they will come after a lone guy taking an engine bay plaque from a car?

Way back in the day before most of the fellows around here knew what a Saleen Mustang was I bought some ARE's from Saleen at one of the Long Beach sidewalk sales. Under one of the wheels in the box was a bag of around 50 engine bay plaques. Needless to say, I handed them back to Stan and said, hey man get with it. That was a long time ago.

We see them come up on Ebay every once and a while. If I was still a crusader, I would be bidding on them just to take them off the street. Those days have passed though. I do have a few engine bay plaques from a few foxbody cars that have been totalled. I drilled them out of the car and took them so no one else could and build something to sell and pass off. There is a difference with making a clone for personal and financial reasons and making a clone to try to sell to some unsuspecting soul.

If you are asking if it should stay with the XP8 or not. I would have to know if it's a total loss. If it can be repaired I say try to save a very rare vehicle. If it's a total loss someone who shouldn't may try to use it for fraudulent reasons.
