1984-1993
1984 - All three 1984 vehicles are safely in
the hands of ONE collector.
If you see a 1984 Saleen for sale, you can bet
it's NOT real!
1985-088 - Stolen
10/26/09 in Tucson AZ
This 1985 Saleen was
stolen sometime late Monday 10/26/09 or early Tuesday right out of
owner's driveway. The car means a great deal to my family, and it really
makes me mad that someone out there has it. I know we Saleen/ Mustang
owners have such a respect for each other, that I am asking you to keep
your eyes and ears open in the hope that can get (at least) most of the
car back. Here are the details: 1985 Saleen #88 * Red with gold racing
stripes * Hayashi Wheels. If you have any information, Please contact
the Pima County Sheriff's Office at

86-007 - Console
Plaque for sale on Ebay April 2009.

the insurance company in the early 90's.
After
being for sale at at wrecking yard for about four years it was bought by
someone to rebuild it. The passenger front subframe was torn off the
rest of the chassis. It was reportedly take to Saleen for the rebuild,
at first glance Steve said it was not worth the cost. Later after
realizing it was in fact a real Saleen and not a clone agreed to take on
the project. I never heard if was finished or retitled but I can assure
that it should have a rebuilt title.

03-279 - Recovered theft. Stripped
shell on Ebay May 2008.
Authentic Hollywood Horsepower car, stripped
down to the shell. It was stolen off the lot at
Dale Jarrett Ford in NC. The insurance company recovered the shell, and
a new owner added the k-member, suspension, fenders, doors, deck lid,
and registered it with the Saleen registry. The shell was sold it to a
guy in Michigan. A few days after the sale, Saleen called the owner
listed in the registry stating that the car had shown up at the service
department at a Ford dealer in NC because the computer went bad...
Turned out a used car dealer originally stole the car, stripped it and
then bought a wrecked car and transferred everything onto the wreck. He
never removed the VIN numbers or any of the Saleen decals. The cars were
the same color. Needless to say he ended up in jail for awhile. The car
he put the parts on sold through the local salvage auction with the
auction house listing it as a complete car with rebuilt title. They
never stated it was a clone. It sold for $18K.

should be punished for the actions of others...
