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 The original Kenwood has been replaced by a later model and looks very close to the original.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.

Forgot to mention that all of the accessories including power windows and locks are in working condition. The A/C blows cold. 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.

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 reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9. Scroll down for the full press release below on Ford's latest race effort.

Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial

Wed, 28 May 2014

How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.
