Up for sale is my extremely rare 1986 Saleen Mustang. There were only 334 "Four Eyed" First Generation Saleens were produced from 1984-1986. There were only 201 Saleens built in the the last year (1986) of this body style. This particular car, 1986 #25, was a very rare combination of an early Saleen body kit with the upgraded 1986 Fuel-Injection. Less than 40 Saleens were produced with this combination. Instead of a full rear-valance, this Saleen was one of the last 4 cars made with the rare rear "spats". Only 9 Saleens were produced with the exact options this car, 1986#25 has. In the last year This Saleen has been treated to a full cosmetic restoration, including New Base/Clear Jalapeno red paint, new NOS Dashpad, new Momo steering wheel, new carpet, new weatherstripping, and newly professionally restored 16" mesh wheels. This car has spent 26 of its 27 years in inland California, and has never had any rust, nor has it ever had any accident damage or any of its original body panels replaced. Pics available during restoration that show all the original paint/panels prior to new Base/Clear being applied. Mechanically the car has original 5.0 V8 that runs very strong, unlike many Saleens this engine has never been modiifed from stock, and has proven to be very reliable. A new clutch, radiator, and motor mounts have been recently serviced. The only upgrade from stock 1986 Saleen are 1987-1993 Mustang larger 11" front brake rotors and calipers. New springs and newer Saleen struts/shocks have also been recently added. New Falken tires. The car runs, drives and steers beautifully, like this Saleen did when it was new. Clear California title. I have over $12,500 invested in this Saleen and I simply am out of room. This saleen will certainly climb in value, there are no rarer, more well documented cars from the 80's than the Saleen Mustang.

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.
