Up for auction is our extremely rare 1988 SALEEN Ranger.  This is number 21 of 29 made of which two of those were not sold and used for racing by SALEEN.  Its anyone's guess as to how many are left, but I would guess very few.  This Survivor has only 14,100 original documented miles.  Sold new here in Colorado, at Courtesy Ford to a friend of ours.  He owned it until 1996 then sold it to a local car collector. It was stored in a climate controlled building until I  purchased it and included it in our classic car collection.  I am the third owner and the title still reads 14,100 actual miles!!   It has never been a daily driver and always garaged. 

The only flaws are as follows; the right rear valance has been repaired (looks fine though), fuel gauge does not work, and the A/C blows cool (not cold).

Everything else on the truck is nearly perfect for a 25 year old truck.  It drives very tight, smooth and has great power.  The engine runs perfect.  The clutch is smooth and grabs well and the transmission shifts very smooth.  It truly drives like a new 1988 Ranger.  With the SALEEN installed Racecraft suspension it handles very well and has a nice ride.  Its a very original truck, including its original Konig wheels with their original General 2000 sport tires.

The paint is all very nice and shows well.  The inside of the bed has a liner (easily removable), the bed floor is perfect and unused.  All glass is nice.  The interior is all original SALEEN that looks new.  It retains it's SALEEN installed number plate on the dash and inner fender well.  Also has the door decal. Making this truck without a doubt an original SALEEN Ranger.

The engine compartment looks new as well as the undercarriage.  Original, unused spare tire.  This truck is perfect as a museum piece or a great addition to any collection, especially if you collect SALEENS!!  I have a current Colorado title in my name that is ready to reassign.  If you have questions please call 303 475-4544 for more information.   Thanks for viewing my SALEEN.

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet

Wed, Oct 7 2015

Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST

Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.

eBay Find Of The Day: 1988 Saleen Ford Mustang General Tire 21R race car

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

Saleen may be making headlines these days for working on the Tesla Model S, but its history and bread-and-butter is all about the Ford Mustang. The rear-wheel-drive Dearborn pony cars singlehandedly put the company on the map in the '80s. Founder Steve Saleen was already a talented American racing driver when he started the venture, and like many auto industry businesses before him, Saleen went to the track to prove his vehicles' worth. Now, there's a chance to buy one of those early racers on eBay Motors.
Saleen Mustangs raced in the Sports Car Club of America Escort Endurance Championship - a series of multi-hour races meant to challenge man and machine. Ostensibly a showroom stock class, the cars had larger wheels, tuned suspensions and other upgrades that stretched the concept slightly. Saleen found major success though, taking the championship for its class in 1987 and winning the 24 Hours of Mosport consecutively from 1986 through 1988.
According to the seller, Saleen only built eight of these cars, and this one carries the #21R serial number. They all started life as new Mustangs from Ford dealers but were immediately stripped and prepped to go racing. Beyond obvious mods like a roll cage, they featured eight-inch wide wheels in front, an inch of additional track width, stiffer suspension bushings and much more.
