Default Q: How many 1998 BAB S281's built?

Just recently bought a 1998 #38 bright Atlantic blue s281 coupe and was just curious if anyone knows the total number built? I received with the car the letter the previous owner had gotten from saleen saying it is 1 of 5 with same color and options. Just curious if anyone ad production numbers broken down by color.

Thanks!

Pretty sure it was 6 or 7 in 1998. One convertible, the rest were coupes... IIRC, there are 21 BAB Saleens total across the 3 years.

Here is a couple pics that I have in the garage. Haven't tagged it yet, have a slew of parts coming to update the tired suspension along with a new clutch. All stock with 129k on it and feels pretty loose and sloppy

There may be an estimated ten Bright Atlantic Blue 1998 S281 models. Three are Cobra based. Seven are GT based. Of the GT version six are coupes. Of the six coupes five had the optional chrome wheels. All five had manual transmissions and black interiors.

The highest optioned BAB 1998 S281 coupe is the car without chrome wheels.

I have some pictures of the 98 BAB convertible that belonged to Hap. Unfortunately, I don't think I can post them, they are a bit NSFW shall we say...
