Official "Find the Tangerine Saleens" thread

I've been doing a lot of digging and a fair bit of emailing people out of the blue trying to get some definitive answers on how many Saleens were produced in Tangerine clear coat. So far, this is what I have....

05 - coupe - silver graphics - owned by me in the UK
103 - coupe - black graphics - owned by a couple in Texas - (on CL at the moment)
125 - vert - owned by Augie Caciolo - in Jersey
223 - coupe - black graphics - in Oregon (previous owner known to Tigger)

Does anyone know anything about 125?? Or any further information on ANY of the tangerine cars???

I'll duplicate this thread on another Saleen forum if anyone can recommend one??

I'll apologize... I almost have to do it:
1994-1998 Saleen Mustang Forum

I'll look a bit later, but I'm pretty sure I have an ad or two for new 1996 Orange S281s and/or a new dealer ad and a "used" vehicle ad. Circa 1990s.

Will look.

Edge, I told you about an Orange 1996 S-281 Coupe in Dalton GA a few years back. I lived there when she bought it new. I met the original owner in 1996. She bought the car at Jacky Jones Ford. She also had a supercharger installed and an SR wing. Well last year she sold the car to a friend of mines brother. I will try and get the bumper # for you. Mark

Hi Mark,

I still have that PM from 2007! You said that the car was owned by Tony W's brother, it would be great if you could get the bumper number, i know it's got the black graphics, and i think its a coupe is it not?

Once we get the number I'll add it to the top post

i must admit I've not given the hunt for tangerines my full attention for the last few months but I'm turning up nothing but blanks

I found a video of a tangering saleen on youtube with a novi 2000, a p51 intake and a big cowl hood. No idea if its a real saleen, a replica or what... cant find out much about that one at all really....
