How to tell if it is real...
Well after rechecking: my VIN is 1FALP46V9VF203630 and the original dealer (Freemont Ford) installed the SC before delivery.
Liz Summar @ Saleen, verified it as number 97-0240 Cobra Convertible based on the VIN that I gave her.
The Book, Must have a Typo.
Thank you,
Eric

your vin lists the car being sold @ 11,850 mi to it's current owner in 2006, is that by chance you?
Does you car have a engine bay plaque from Saleen?

Mike,
Yes and Yes!
I originally, was going to buy a coupe "over the hill" in California when I found Joyce's car! 11,900 miles showing with all of the original paperwork. Triple black speedster with the vortech. I fell in love!
When I did not buy it, my wife asked me if I wanted it?!? (She has been complaining about ALL of my cars, for years!) I said "any man with (synthetic) oil in his veins, would love to have it!" Then she said "then why don't you buy it?"
I love my Wife!!!!
We did a wire transfer, the next day.
As of yesterday, it has 17,290 miles on it.
Nothing like a drive around Lake Tahoe in a rag-top!
I do not even care what it is worth. NOT FOR SALE!

I have aquired a 2001 Saleen. Vin # 1FAFP42X01F179071 S281 '01-0503.
What can you tell me about it? It appeared to have factory paint of red then factory repainted gold/grey color.

For 01-0503
Factory options were: Supercharger, tire upgrade with 10" rear wheel option, mats, and chrome wheel upgrade. Ship date of: 04/13/2001
Unfortunately the book does not list any details about paint color. Maybe someone here might know the story.
Also, post pics when you have a chance.

Please give more insight as to the clues you found that lead to the belief that the base chassis was once red.
