Default Re: Saleen - What do They Contribute?

Some answers and tid-bits:

1) NO VIPER has EVER had "CHROME" wheels. But 99-02 ACR had a chrome PETE logo in centercap. All 08 ACRs have black wheels except one...there were 3 PVP wheels, too! None chrome.

2) Prefix has limited STORAGE area vs CAAP. Prefix PAINTS the stripes, but ACR and Aero-package cars waiting weeks for Aero-Parts are clogging the flow.... So they go back to CAAP after striping for safe storage til they can get Aero.

3) Saleen paints panels and assembles hoods and hatches and attches hardware. Saleen also actually trouble-shoots some rare few assembled Vipers as with hatch-back issues or leaks. So a Viper can go from CAAP to Prefix to CAAP to Saleen and then back to CAAP ! All ENCLOSED!!

4) Saleen has an office at CAAP where their own QC lady works hand-in-hand w/ Craftspersons.

5) The Pick-N-Pack area at CAAP holds the Red-Stripe steering wheels, for build-sheets that requre that option. (At VOI, almost all these boxes had some NEAT logos on em, dear to my heart.....................!!!)
