Awesome Saleen PJ Gallery

Nice pix by Autoblog, but the only photo with the hood up is of the front seats through the Shaker hole.

Watts linkage. Remember those two words. That's what takes this Mustang from acceptable to **** near perfect. As much as we liked that sweet-sounding, rev-happy motor, the suspension is what really convinced us this was the Mustang to have. The Parnelli still uses a solid-beam rear axle, but two Saleen-developed Watts links are added in place of the stock Panhard rods on each side. This allows Saleen to use PJ-specific RaceCraft Suspension pieces like a thicker anti-roll bar and stiffer springs, bushings and shocks all around
Remember Watts linkage????
Maybe they should look it up so they know what it is first.

Oh, and Panhard rod too while they are at it.

Anyone know price for either engine option?

We all know most of us are not going to be able to get a boss due to the production numbers and don't think too many people will order the PJ Saleen since not too many people know about it. So i'd jump on this.

There is no engine option; you get a PJ, you get a 5.0.

Check ebay

Amazing.

There are a number of things on that car, which by themselves, I don't like, but combined together on that car, I like.

What brand quarter window louvers are those?

They must be specific to Saleen; I haven't seen them...

Good enough for the top-of-the-line Saleen

Makes those long nights well worth the effort.

A guy I work with owns one. I'll get some shots of it soon and post. He was a lucky one and paid MSRP for his through a connection. However it's getting offers from people to buy his for well over what he paid. Not going to sell though.

I have one of the first PJs delivered and I paid a little over $61K from a dealer in MI. That price included GGTax and enclosed carrier delivery to my doorstep.
It was received in MI before Thanksgiving and delivered to me on 12/2. Because of the NE winter it has spent most of the time in heated garage under covers. It currently has 286 miles on it. It is number 39 of 500.
Like the person above I would not sell my PJ either.
