14-013 S302 Yellow Label

2014 Saleen Yellow Label Mustang #13 (14-013). Supercharged – 625hp. Less than 2,500 miles. I am the original owner. Extremely well cared for; never seen rain, never raced, never abused. Non-smoker. Stays covered in the garage. 100% authentic; signed by Steve Saleen on the dash and engine compartment. Recaro Seats. Custom car cover included, as well as rubber Mustang floor mats (original Saleen mats also included and never used). The only flaw on the entire car is a little slight impression of a receiver hitch on the front bumper where some jackhole barely backed into it. Other than that, it is in showroom condition.

CLOSER LOOK: S281 (96-0002) RETURNS STATESIDE

PHOTOS: JAEDA CROSBY

96-0002 S281 LOA
96-0002 S281 LOA

Currently, Saleen Automotive offers a dozen custom exterior paint colors on their line of performance vehicles. Though in the late 1990s during the SN95 era, there was one available non-factory hue. A single color that could represent green, blue, purple and gold. This lone color was Extreme Rainbow, the initial optional Saleen custom color developed with partner BASF.

BASF introduced a line of “Extreme Colors” in 1996. Of these first three Extreme hues, Rainbow was the most varied. Officially offered by Saleen as an option for the 1997 model year, they would go on to produce a total of 19 vehicles in this chromatic paint before this color disappeared after the 2009 model year.

One such vehicle is 96-0002, this special SN95 S281 coupe is among the earliest Saleen Mustangs to showcase this unique paint option. Current owner, Jaeda Crosby, located 96-0002 through a fever-pitched search for an original Saleen Extreme Rainbow Mustang. Given both the limited production and limited availability of this color, Jaeda had few leads and numerous dead-ends in trying to locate a vehicle in the United States. Perseverance sent Jaeda to the United Kingdom where #02 had lived since 2004.

Produced during October 1996 and shipped on the 25th of that month, #02 features an interesting list of early Saleen optional equipment. Beginning with the newly introduced S281 coupe, #02 hosts the following: Heat extractor hood, Speedline magnesium wheels, tire upgrade, 13″ front brake upgrade, and Saleen/Recaro leather seating.

For the 1996 model year Saleen produced 444 Mustangs, 424 were S281 models, 413 were based on the GT chassis, 191 were of the GT coupe body, 177 GT coupes featured 5-speed manual transmissions and 27 GT coupes with manual transmissions featured Opal Grey interior. Of those, 4 had the Saleen/Alcon brake upgrade, 20 were equipped with the optional 3.55:1 gears, 3 had the Tire Upgrade while 96-0002 was the lone S281 coupe, GT chassis, Manual Transmission, Opal Grey interior vehicle to receive the optional Saleen vented hood, Saleen/Recaro leather seating, Speedline Magnesium Wheels and Optional Custom Paint.

Of the 444 street Mustangs produced for the model year, one was painted a Saleen custom color. 96-0002 is this car.

S7 TWIN TURBO (06-073) TO HIT RM AUCTIONS, MOTOR CITY

S7 Twin Turbo 06-073
S7 Twin Turbo 06-073

Plymouth, Michigan – 30 July, 2016

2006 Saleen S7
Chassis no. 1S9SB18106S000073
Serial no. S7-06-073
www.rmauctions.com

750 bhp, 427 cu. in. DOHC aluminum V-8 with twin Garrett turbochargers, six-speed manual transaxle, four-wheel fully adjustable independent suspension, and four-wheel ventilated Brembo disc brakes. Wheelbase: 106.2 in.

  • One of the final Saleen S7s built
  • Two owners and just over 300 miles from new
  • Serviced in May of 2016 and ready for the road

Born and bred right here in the United States, the all-new Saleen S7 was the brainchild of Steve Saleen and marked his company’s first venture into the world of the supercar. While it had an excellent reputation for tuning Mustangs, the company had never before built and designed a car of its own name, and so the world definitely took notice when Saleen unveiled the S7. Boasting a completely unique chassis clothed in svelte carbon-fiber bodywork, the S7 was developed for racing, with road-going examples constructed to meet homologation requirements and please eager customers. Fitted with a mid-mounted 427-cubic inch V-8 engine at its heart, it could truly compete with the world’s fastest and most exclusive supercars, boasting a top speed of 220 mph and a 0–60 mph time of 3.3 seconds.

Looking to turn up the intensity of the S7 even more, Saleen introduced the S7 Twin Turbo in 2005 to great fanfare. With the addition of a pair of Garrett turbochargers, the S7 Twin Turbo supplied one of the fastest cars that money could buy, with even more horsepower, torque, and speed. Horsepower was raised to 750, and the car was fitted with new front and rear fenders, along with a slightly revised aerodynamics package. The car’s performance was nothing short of ludicrous, boasting a 0–60 mph time of 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 248 mph.

Of the 13 S7 Twin Turbos produced for the 2006 model year, the example offered here is one of the last, and therefore one of the very last S7s ever built. Finished new in Lizstick Red, it was acquired by its current owner from the gentleman who purchased the car new. Today, it is presented in absolutely factory-fresh condition and is said to exhibit exceptional build quality throughout. Having only traveled just over 300 miles from new, it is undoubtedly one of the lowest-mileage examples in existence. Last serviced in May of 2016, it still retains its original window sticker, as well as its luggage set and car cover.

Both today and when it was new, the Saleen S7 stood proud against Europe’s supercar establishment as a fully American supercar. Still incredibly fast even by today’s lofty standards, the Saleen S7 has already proven to be a highly coveted and collectible automobile and will surely only garner more attention in the future. One would be hard-pressed to find a more pristine example than that offered here, which has been carefully preserved by only two private owners and driven just over 300 miles… thus far!

CARLISLE FORD NATIONALS 2016 COVERAGE

Whew! The first weekend of June described with a single word. 2016 marked our eighth consecutive year hosting Saleen owners during the Ford Nationals by Carlisle Events. There were an estimated 53 (or 54) Saleen manufactured vehicles on the fairgrounds to proudly display Power In The Hands of a Few to all showgoers. A collection of Saleen Mustangs ranging from the initial 1985 production year to the latest 2016 S302. Of special note was the appearance of 88-0020R from Performance Autosport’s proprietor Mark LaMaskin. A reminder of Saleen Automotive’s accomplished motorsport history.

Event support appreciation to Rudy & Betsy Beyer for their tireless effort operating the SOEC tent and assistance with S302 new car delivery during the show. Lastly, gratitude to all participants, enthusiasts and owners that make these events so special.

88-0294 Saleen Mustang
88-0294 Saleen Mustang

Up for sale is a 1988 real SALEEN convertible mustang. I recently bought this for my wife however she would prefer an automatic. So my loss is your gain. This is a real Saleen with all of the Saleen components present with the exception of the original radio. This is a rust free car, not a rattle box either, with all the original body panels with all the tags. Clear carfax history as well.

Starting off with the body:
The body like I mentioned is in great shape and has good bones. At some point I would think this collectible should have a fresh paint job, as there are spots that are showing its age. The lower spoilers could use a fresh dose of 3M double stick tape, the worst part of the car would be the trunk lid, as the body work from Saleen (being that its 30 years old) is showing its age and the paint is lifting.

Interior:
I would rate the interior a strong 8 out of 10 all the Saleen correct material is there and the most important seats are there. the interior is all original. Momo steering wheel, correct shift knob, door panels, cluster, and floor mats.I would say the interior could use a stream cleaning to make it fresh. I haven’t had a chance to do so.

88-0294 Saleen Mustang
88-0294 Saleen Mustang

Drivetrain:
Probably the most impressive part of the car, car drives straight and true and really has non of the typical convertible rattles associated with them. The tires i would say are 75%. Recently the entire brake system was overhauled with a tune up, New gas tank, fuel pump,and sending unit. Brand new clutch as well. Like i mentioned the car drives great.

I would to make this car a complete show stopper would be refinish the wheels and make them brand new.

These cars are beginning to gain value everyday since they are 30 years old. The collector car market is seeing a spike in fox bodies and more importantly the Saleen mustangs.

I believe its priced right and correct description about the car is given.

I do reserve the right to end the auction early. and i can be reach at 516-225-2735 for any further questions you might have. Can be seen locally if needed. Trades might be considered.

Car is 100% stock down to the air silencer in the fender.

Mr. Barwick is the owner and had ran the Saleen in time trials after getting his license. The last time it was ran was at the 50th Mustang show at Charlotte NC. It is super dependable, awesome to drive and has never been in any incidents. Seat belts are out of date, tires are still great, just changed the oil and brake fluid. I installed new brake pads on front and rear and has only two open track events on them. Handles great!! call me with any questions Bob Oswalt 803-532-1011
