Now to start, we are not a Saleen distributor or authorized parts retailer. But, Jeff Dann of Bishop has sold Saleen parts in Canada for over seven years to where we grew to be the largest Saleen distributor in Canada and quickly grew to 5th overall in the world.

As time passes, things change and Bishop had to drop the Saleen line in 2004 and move on to new opportunities. That dose not mean that we can not help you now, over those seven years we have gained quite a bit of knowledge of the Saleen line and maybe we can help! Toll Free: 866-867-8324!

SALEEN PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS
Saleen Inc., celebrating over twenty four years as a specialty vehicle manufacturer, specializes in the manufacture of vehicles for enthusiasts that include technology developed from the Saleen/Allen Speedlab race team, five-time winners of sports car racing manufacturer championships. 

Saleen creates high performance vehicles for street and track, including the new S7 supercar, the S281, the XP8, and the race/road SR. The company also produces and markets a broad line of performance parts as well as offering design, engineering and certification services. 

The company, started by former racing driver Steve Saleen, began in 1983. Saleen used his business degree from USC, coupled with experience in his father's manufacturing business, to build the company. His passion for racing also played a part. Steve began autocrossing, then rapidly moved into SCCA pro series (Formula Atlantic, Trans-Am Championship) and then into Indy car racing. 

By 1984, the first Saleen street car was ready for sale. It boasted special aerodynamics, an attractive and highly functional cockpit and a precise handling suspension package. The result was a car built as a limited edition model with individual serial numbers assuring authenticity. Later, demonstrating the car's performance, the company’s race team brought home a victory for Saleen, Ford and sponsor General Tire at the 24-hour race at Mosport Park in Ontario, Canada. 

Pushing harder into the 1987 season, Saleen, now a three-car team, captured all four SCCA World Challenge championship titles: with Driver’s – Steve Saleen and Rick Titus; Team; Manufacturer; and Tire. The team continued its winning ways in 1988, claiming its third consecutive victory at Mosport and taking the top three positions. The Mosport podium was the first one, two, three finish for a Ford-powered car since its cars took the top three positions at the 24 Hours of LeMans in the late '60s.

In 1989, Steve Saleen entered Indy Car racing to gain experience on the circuit that could translate to increased performance for Saleen street vehicles. In 1991, Saleen Racing's Ford Ranger won the 1991 SCCA Race Truck Championship. 

In 1995, Steve Saleen teamed up with television and motion picture star Tim Allen and formed the Saleen/Allen "RRR" Speedlab race team, which campaigned Saleen Mustangs in the SCCA World Challenge Series. The team won four SCCA Manufacturer's Championship titles, winning in 1996, 1997, 1998. In 1999, a Saleen customer in a turnkey Mustang SR Widebody race car won the manufacturer’s title in Spain.

"The knowledge we gain from motor sports feeds right back into our street performance Saleen road cars,” says founder Steve Saleen. "Our customers are performance fans – they want the feeling of driving a race car. Our powerful, specialty vehicles are a direct translation of superior racing technology adapted to street use."

Saleen, Inc. is certified by the federal government as a specialty vehicle manufacturer and has produced nearly 7,000 vehicles, more than any other American specialty manufacturer. Producing a well-made car and putting "power in the hands of a few™" is the backbone of the Saleen tradition. A pioneer in mass customization and niche vehicle manufacturing, Saleen’s design and production practices are now being adopted by major automobile companies. 
"From the beginning we have been dedicated to one goal: helping our customers get maximum performance and driving pleasure," said Saleen. "Whether it's horsepower, handling, aerodynamics or overall performance, we guarantee that quality is engineered into every Saleen vehicle
