Saleen Bleakley Impressor II
I’ve wanted a red Foxbody Saleen Mustang for quite some time now. If you’re like me you’re constantly surfing online classified sections which includes but not limited to Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Hemmings Motor News Classifieds, and many of the online Forums that are still active these days.
This little Foxbody Saleen Mustang popped up in my feed and it fit the bill, literally, for price and color. I had a set of AKT Logic wheels to put on it sitting in my storage spot of my garage. The plan was to build a car that has a 1993 Saleen look to it. Little did I know this car had more in store for me. Read along in the blog to see how things transpired.
