I'm sure S281SC will help you out before I get back home and can look in my book. Thanks for being The Man in here lately S281SC

As for the fox body car with a sunroof - I don't recall Saleen ever converting a fox body with a sunroof Therefore I would guess that car to be a clone or have a aftermarket sunroof cut into it I could be wrong though

As for the '99 question with orange paint - we need the Saleen serial number off the bumper as mentioned in the above posts.

If it hasn't been answered by Friday I'll check into then.

Can't find anything on the Sunroof - the VIN - 127 is correct for the bumper #363, it was delivered in to WV.

Sorry zaxjax, you need to call Saleen on that one. The Registry is only current through 2003.

Thanks anyways. I did take a look in person at the car. It's beautiful but the guy listed as s/c, and it's not. I'm going the Cobra route, it's very hard to find a s/c Saleen around here.

Only the supercharged Saleens have the extra guage pod on top of the dash.

Was doing some searching for the Saleen Registry and came upon this tread. This is nice of you guys to do.

I am a member of the Corral.net but just registered here. Anyway, can you give me the details on the following car. Real or not real and options if available.

91 Blue Convt.

VIN# 1FACP44E0MF145196

Saleen ID# 91-0045

That car checks out as legit - '91 #45 with VIN ending in 196. Nothing reported on it other than it had a Blue Top originally.

Great - now that you've mastered this Sticky Thread - its time to browse the next Sticky down and post some pics of your car

Also, check out the Saleen Club of America at www.saleenclubofamerica.com when you get a moment. We are always looking for new (and long-time) Saleen owners for membership

What year? Looks to be Dk Shadow Grey so should be '03 or '04. If its '04 we can't tell (see Post #1 here). I could decode it, but you'd make life so much easier

All Saleens maintain the Ford Factory VIN number thus it will always come up as a Mustang GT Coupe or Vert.
