Guest Removed Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 yes..i remember those...i think they id a explorer as well. i know i have seen the body kits go for top dollar cause they dont make them anymore and i dont think the grill is correct but might have been a option. look it up. i know theres info out there on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Basiclly it was the Ranger GT with the Saleen body kit. Had a Friend in school that had a red GT was a pretty sporty truck for its time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOS50 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 I remember them when they were new and the Explorers.I didn't think they made many of them at all.I also remember a Saleen SSC brand new at the Ford Dealership and the Shogun Festiva.

zeitgeist57 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Did a blind man maintain that car? For as clean as it is I can't imagine spending that much time keeping it detailed...because you have to LOOK AT IT the whole time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormulaMatt Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 By far the worst and ugliest car Ford has let Saleen mod, but still cool from a rare standpoint. I would buy something else rare first though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig71188 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 RARE does not equal VALUABLE! Saleen entered the VERY short lived (maybe 1 season) SCCA Pro Truck road racing series and one some races with the Fords. Seems the trucks also rolled over a lot and the series ended quickly. Let's face it, if he could have sold them, he would have built more than 27! Great for someone with a Saleen monkey on his back. For $15K, you could build a better faster Ranger (and better looking too!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sol740 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 My buddys older brother bought a Saleen Explorer. It was pretty sweet ... ... till it started falling apart piece by piece less than a year after he bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty sweet ... ... till it started falling apart piece by piece less than a year after he bought it. my dad bought a s281 sc and didn't have all the options it should of had, aslo for the price he could of built a gt and built it and still have less money in it.

I remember the general tires fords and jeeps driven by the archer brothers. Seem like the jeep where running a awd or 4wd if I remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Wow!! I think that thing gave birth to the ugly stick. It only mentions it's a 2.9 V6, anything special with the motors or was this just an "appearance package"?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
