1987 Saleen Mustang 87-186 on 2040-cars
Rio Rancho, New Mexico, United States
|
Hello everyone. Up for bids is my 1987 Saleen Mustang. It is car number 87-186. It is finished in the original 1D dark grey and was painted about 6 years ago. This Mustang wears all of its original VIN tagged sheet metal. Never wrecked. NOS quarter windows were replaced after the re paint. Originals were faded pretty bad. All of the Saleen specific parts are with the car. I have done a few performance enhancing upgrades since I have owned it. The engine is original but the cylinder heads have been replaced with 1995 vintage Lightning GT 40 type. The intake manifold is an Explorer GT 40 type. The valvetrain has 1.7 roller rockers. Exhaust is Ford Motorsport headers going in to a NOS original catalytic convertor H-pipe and 2 1/2 inch Flowmaster cat back system with polished tail pipes. All of the original emissions and thermactor pieces are on the car and functional. Passed a smog check in Las Vegas NV a couple of years ago with no problems. The rear axle has a 3.27 gear. Tires are 5 years old and are BF Goodrich G-Force KDW. They have about 10k miles on them. The interior is in Good condition with some fading on the drivers seat side bolster. Has all of the original interior pieces. The original Kenwood has been replaced by a later model and looks very close to the original. I have the original Kenwood stereo. This Saleen runs and drives great. I got 25 mpg on a trip to Las Vegas this past spring. Was shown at the Mustang 50th Anniversary show in Las Vegas. This is a very nice example of a foxbody Saleen that I get compliments on every time I drive it.

The discrepancy on the odometer reading is a result of the state of New Mexico not adding a 1 for the 100k. The car shouldn't be dinged from Autocheck for that but it is what it is. I have other pics available too if interested.
On Jul-27-14 at 06:25:11 PDT, seller added the following information: Also I have a copy of the Marti report. I can send a copy to anyone interested. It shows being ordered through Damerow Ford in Beaverton Oregon. The car has both the Saleen buck tag and Ford buck tag on the core support. The Saleen has absolutely NO RUST. Has been in a desert environment most of its life. |

Ford brings FPV Falcon production in house [w/video]
Thu, 21 Feb 2013For the first time since 1976, Ford of Australia is bringing the assembly of its stonking Ford Performance Vehicle line back in-house to the company's Broadmeadows and Geelong facilities. That's a point of pride for FPV, which builds high-performance versions of the Australian Falcon model like the F6, GS and the heroic GT seen here.
In the video below, we hear FPV employees talking in hushed tones about the important legacy that cars like the GT have for Australian gearheads of all stripes, and how proud they are to say that hand-built machines like this GT R-Spec with its Boss 355 engine are now rolling out of their home base. For our part, we're just dying to drive this version of the Coyote V8; the engine is rocking a "Miami" supercharger from Harrop and makes some 450 horsepower.
Continue on below for the video, or you can check out some images of the new FPV at the facility, as well as a gallery of the GT R-Spec car.
How did Ford keep the GT a secret before Detroit?
Mon, Feb 2 2015True secrecy is a rarity in the automotive industry. Sure, companies try to keep their future projects under wraps all of the time, but usually a spy shot or blurry development photo leaks out. The complete lack of any hard details before its unveiling likely helped make the Ford GT one of the biggest stars of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Not only was it the favorite of Autoblog's editors, but the supercar scored a prestigious EyesOn Design Award, too. Rumors about the vehicle had circulated for weeks before the show, but no one really knew much about the GT until it rolled onto the stage for Ford's press conference in Joe Louis Arena. Amazingly, the Blue Oval kept things mostly a secret during the car's 14- month gestation period prior to its debut. According to Automotive News, the GT project began in late 2013 by a skunk works team, including six designers, that guided the supercar along from birth until the unveiling. Ford kept things clandestine by locking the vehicle in a basement storage room, and only the group members got a key to the lock. Much of the development was also done at night to further keep the secret, but occasionally the prototype was hauled outside on weekends to check it out in natural light. Because of the speed in getting the development done and for even more stealth, the designers didn't get input from the Blue Oval's other styling teams around the world. But that was somewhat of a double-edged sword. "You don't actually get to bounce opinions off people," Ford design boss Moray Callum said to Automotive News. "We were on tenterhooks ourselves until the first people saw it." Even now, there are still mysteries surrounding the GT. There's still no official word on the supercar's power; just that it's over 600 horsepower. There are also the persistent rumors going back months that the Blue Oval plans to take the GT racing to celebrate the 50th anniversary of automaker's Le Mans victory. Although, maybe this time the secrecy wasn't so good because we might have got a glimpse of the racer, recently. Related Video:
