1:) One of the last vehicles Phil Frank and Steve Saleen collaborated on. Last vehicle Steve Saleen marketed while connect to Saleen Inc.

2:) A much rarer vehicle. Heritage production was cut short. The H302, H302 S/C and H281 S/C DG production combined do not equal half the PJ output.

The PJ photo you grabbed is mine when it was a new car on the lot.

You will enjoy either vehicle. It just comes down to what color and production story you prefer.

Locally, we currently have four PJs running around.

Default Boss 302

I like both but I'm going to have to vote for the Parnelli Jones 302 BOSS!

To me, it looks better than the current Boss and I love the throwback design.

Can't go wrong with either one really :)

That is a tuff decision! For me it's close, but I think I might go with the H302! One year newer, it's even more rare than the PJ, and that color combo is sick! How many miles on the two? Do either have any other options that set them apart or mods?

Love both cars but 'Coot has the best...H302 in Vapor...saw it at Campbells before it went to Texas...the H302SC is more wicked though.

The one he is looking at is a H302SC isn't it?

If its the white car its a H302; the H302SC has the aluminum vented hood with 302SC in black lettering next to them and did not have chrome wheels..same motor (stroked 302 forged internals) but not supercharged; came with the shaker....I have a 2007H281 that went back to Saleen and was converted to H302SC specs...its on my avatar (kind of hard to see).

I know I am predudiced but my money would go on the Parnelli...has a lot more history to it's manufacture and an absolutely awesome car to drive.

Add the Super Shaker later and really enjoy

Tony

Congratulations on your decision. You couldn't go wrong with either car. The white Heritage was at Campbell when I bought my vapor 3V.

To 'McQueen, Campbell had a silver SC302 on the lot when I made the purchase. Would have been a beast!! I couldn't pull the trigger on the price though......
