    Yeah, I drove it twice, felt pretty good before the pulley. It seems to need a little more gear IMO but it's handling is where it shines. Heres a couple more he just sent me.

    Saleen manages to make the car look more aggressive without overdoing it. They always look clean and mean, and their stance is just right. Ford needs to take some notes in that department.

    Love the Saleen interiors too. Shhhwiinnnnngg!!!!!!!

    Your Uncle's car is SUPER nice. I'm partial to silver, having had 2 fox GTs in that color.

    Friends of mine have an awesome '97(?) Saleen speedster with the supercharged 351 and 6-speed. What a car that is. I think 505 horses with the stock pulley. You guys have probably seen them up at the Starlite cruise in Wexford. They also have a supercharged orange '07 Saleen ragtop with an auto ( his wife drives it and she has had recent hip surgery, so a stick was not an option ) and a supercharged fox-body Saleen convertible. It's really cool seeing them side by side at shows. It proves that Saleen's designs have really held up... for 20+ years.

    You're probably right on the year. Yes - it belongs to Rudy & Betsy Beyer and it is red with black leather. They do drive it quite a bit, but it is as clean underneath as anything out there.

    I 've seen that red Saleen and talked to the owners. They are very nice peeps. His name is Rudy and I forget what hers is. I think he is a teacher in Freedom. They take that car everywhere and drive the sh!t out of it.
    Thats what it was meant for.
