Well guys i have been looking at this site for several days and my compliments to you all. I have looked on e-bay as well as the autotrader site and it seems that the cars are few and far between at least what i would consider to get. I have two harley's and am considering letting one go, it is 98 FXSTC "Softail Custom" show winner and absolutley awesome bike, I just never ride it since I got an Ultra Classics. I would consider a trade or quick sale if the right car were presented to me. I would like to find an 87-93 Saleen prefer to be 90-93. I would also like it to have a factory sunroof and supercharger but would consider all because each is special in it's own right. Several years ago I almost bought a Red one out of Dalton Georgia. I loved this car and wish I had bought it now. He had several cars and evan an SA-10 do not remember the number though. If you guy's know of any please send me the information I have looked at the two calypso cars and as beautiful as they are the color just has not grown on me yet. But I do appreciate all of the help.
....two good soruces to get started. Continue searching ebay, the autotrader and check the monthly nation-wide issue of The Mustang and Ford Trader Good luck!!

Dalton GA huh, I know that guy - suprised to hear he was thinking of selling one You should really consider one of the Calypso cars. There were only 5 built and the 93 is already a rare year for Saleen to begin with. Keep us posted with what you end up with
THE GUY I SPOKE OF IN DALTON AT THE TIME WAS REALLY PO'D ABOUT THE NEW SALEENS COMING OUT BEING SO MASS PRODUCED. HE AT THE TIME HAD ONLY FOX BODIES AND I BELEIVE OWNED 3 AT THE TIME. HE MAY HAVE GOTTEN OVER IT THOUGH. DO YOU KNOW IF EITHER OF THE 93 HAVE SUNROOFS?

The two Calypso currently for sale do not have sunroofs, and of the other 3 I can't answer if they do or not.
The guy in GA (his name is Bill xxxxx) to the best of my knowledge has (3) 93's. He may have more total, but I know he has a red 93, an SA-10, and a 93 SC Convertible that was built from a '93.5 Feature Edition convertible (with the color match mirrors). I BELIEVE that SC Vert was the only Saleen done that year from a Feature car. Sounds like he may have gotten over it - I mean why not, the mass produced cars were being built on a new platform, and he does have 3 of the most collectible Saleen around
REDGTVERT< Get me some pics and how the car is optioned. I am going to look at a pro touring 69 camaro this weekend. I am interesrested. What part of FL are you in. I have property close to Ocala and come to Daytona some.
Sell the '67 . . . no way, unless someone wants to pay me a stupid amount of money.
I think the Fox and the 1st gen look good together. Don't know if the pic will post.
zeus41502, I am in West Palm Beach. I am not selling 90-33 unless someone wants it real bad. It is a trailer queen, litteraly. It has less than 2700 miles.

Looks like a very nice palace there in the background, one that would certainly be enhanced by a larger garage Good luck with the sale man, not sure how you could muster up the nerve to sell any of them...those are some fine a$$ cars you got there

Don't forget to also try Greg Wackett of the Saleen Locating Service. He's been linking Saleens and new owners longer than anyone.
His site is not live yet, but I believe it will be in the next few weeks. http://www.saleenls.com/
He might know of a private party car that fits your needs. I can PM his contact info.

Well, I may be a mouses uncle. I think we may have ourselves a Big-Wing here. I checked Gary's post a few weeks back, but pics were removed. Seems to have the rounded front-end of wing and not the more sharp and closer fitting standard-wing.

Chime in Mr. Big-Wing and let us know please
No sir Mr. Jazz, this is a totally different era wing. The "Big Wing" was only used in 1984 and on a handfull of the 1985 cars. Go back to Gary's post and look at the entire wing and you should see a big difference in the 1984-85 Big Wing and the 1985-86 Smaller Wing compared to the 87+ wing.
All this talk about wings and I'm getting hungry for some Hooters
However, is anyone interested in a 1995 Saleen S351 T-code Speedster with only 13K miles. It is #0050, Rio Red tinted clear coat, (T-code) = black leather Recaro interior, lightweight hood, Saleen/Alcon racing brakes, and Saleen light bar. I am second owner and have owned since 1998. In Saleen registry, fully documented and original since showroom. Saleen Spec sheet, pictures of Saleen mustang, and both Ford and Saleen window stickers are available to interested persons. Few S351 Speedsters were made, here's your chance. For California folks, this could be yours in time for the Annual Saleen Show starting in Irvine, CA. Call (860) 639-6011 or (619) 227-5909 so pictures may be forwarded.
