Well guys life is full of twists and I decided to put the Saleen up for sale. It's an amazing car, but I would like to focus on my 2020 GT500 CFTP.

Do you own a 2020 or 2021 GT-500? I'm confused because your signature says 2020.

You’re actually not the first person to offer Doge or a payment from its profits. I’m into crypto, but won’t roll the dice on meme coins.
Lol...that's funny. I don't mean that I'd pay in Doge, just that when I turn my Doge into millions of dollars, I'd be coming for that Saleen.

I made a decent chunk of change earlier this year the first time Doge spiked but I immediately turned it around into other investments. All the cryptos I have at the moment are long term holds.

OP (or anyone else) . . . what gas cap (make/model) is that, and will it work for most Mustangs?

I'm trying to find a yellow E85 cap for my 2008, but I'm having trouble locating one that is listed for my model/year.


I’m not sure if the 2008 is the same, but I’ve had this cap on my 2003 terminator as well.

Small update.

I had such good luck with my Bemaro decals for my GT500 that I had them make me SALEEN banner and chassis number out of 3m 4D carbon fiber vinyl.

Got it installed, it turned out great. I’m shocked how well it matches the real carbon fiber on the car.

Thought you were selling the Saleen JD? Or maybe I was just dreaming again?!

Dude, I can’t make up my mind. I haven’t done anything to try and sell the car since I posted it on eBay, but I’ve been actively working to bring it up to 100%. It’s really turned out to be an amazing ride.

I just swapped out the e brake cables for new ones and replaced the rear brakes with rebuilt units and I finally have a functioning ebrake. The nice powder coated ones that came on the car never allowed the ebrake to function even after rebuilding them. Easier to just paint new calipers than continue to fight the old ones.

I also recently swapped out a oil feed line to the turbo that had a slow leak, just enough to keep me wiping down the engine bay. Now she’s dry as the Sahara.

Small update, I liked the 3M carbon fiber "SALEEN" window banner so much I ordered the "SALEEN" bumper letters in the same material. Turned out great!

Also, I snagged a rare shot of all 3 in the garage, normally one is in storage so my wife can park her Navigator inside. I peed on her spot and claimed it as my own through Sunday.
