Saleen is kinda not owned but has a relationship with Ford so I wouldn't doubt it.

Saleen is incharge of some of Ford's Racing teams just like Roush is but obviously they aren't owned by Ford and it's also kind of obvious that Saleen has a relationship with Ford.
Not trying to be harsh but you stated the obvious there.

Saleen and Roush builds the cars for Ford. Saleen has a plant in Detroit that builds them.
