I remember that car being in an off road video game for PS1. I'm trying to recall the name of it.

Find a low milage 5.0 white explorer, buy a Saleen ground effects kit, then add Repop Saleen rims, and a used blower. Oh! and the stickers. Hell I get asked so many times if my car is a "Real" Saleen it isnt funny.

I could have said NO but felt 'not really' was a little more appropriate, however, that could easily change once Wayne gets his trans rebuilt......;)

^^^^^^^^YEA..that's why i talked with Marv last week about converting the QUEER over to S/C..fig with new trans and his handy work..the QUEER would be styling...
checked into doing a EXPLODER...but the mountaqueer is the same SUV and i like it's color.......got the wing...it's shorter then what was told to me...EBAY SUCKS....

we'll see..have a few days to make up my mind..will talk with Marv some more and see what he has come up with...he's up to his elbows right now in work, so i don't want to bug him...but he did say it could be done with a smile on his face...

It's kinda a weird car and starting to date it's self. I wouldn't pay too much more for it then a normal model.

I dunno.....if it really strikes you as cool, and you feel you want it, I think you should buy it.

Hell I get asked so many times if my car is a "Real" Saleen it isnt funny.Cant do it, there is no after market ground effects available for the xp6/xp8 or anything to convert your explorer to one......There would be a few clones out there if there was some....Hell wayne is lucky enough to have found the spoiler


Do it wayneI agree, but not if it goes above 10k....if anything, rebuild the engine, put a blower on it, and you are done


it will be fine if its been maintained proper and not beat to shit,also rememeber saleen went underHowever you can still get parts from the saleen website, well at least last I checked you could. that and SMS is taking care of current saleen owners

like I said, rebuild it, put a blower, done.
