1989 Saleen #031 of 161 built to celebrate mustangs 25th anniversary. This car has never been titled ( Still out on Mso ) or registered. Always in climate controlled storage. Still has that new car smell. I have owned this car for almost 10 years and put less than 10 miles on it. Everything on the car works including the cockpit adjustable suspension. I have entered the car in 3 shows and taken first every time. The car was in the 2011 Houston Autorama and won best in class. The 2013 Mustang club of America show in Beaumont won gold award. The 2013 Saleen Nationals won best in class. You will not find a nicer car. Everything on the car (except for the oil filter and battery ) is stock including the general tires which are still in great shape with no signs of dry rot.

The Saleen ssc came with hand stitched leather interior, factory roll bar, 200 mph speedometer, rear seat delete, high-flow heads and modified intake, 4-wheel disc brakes etc... The M.S.R.P. on this car was $36,500 back in 1989.

Here is a rare chance to own a true museum piece just before the 50th anniversary. I have lots of documentation with the car, including pictures of this car being built at Saleen.

This car is also for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold locally.

I have had numerous responses to end the auction now and I appreciate the response, but I think the fair thing to do will be to let the auction run it's course. The car is no longer for sale locally.  This is a no reserve auction. Thanks to everyone for the interest, and the high bid wins. If there are questions or concerns about the car please give me call at 713-498-9806.  Thanks Seth

Does the new 2015 Ford Mustang have a burnout control system?

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Whether it's lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring or automatic emergency braking, most of the electronic systems we see emerging on new vehicles focus on safety. But there are some there just for enthusiasts. We're talking about systems like automatic throttle blipping for perfect downshifts, or launch control to get that textbook acceleration from a standstill. But the latest system could prove just the opposite of the latter.
Although it has given us most of the details, Ford is still keeping certain elements of its new Mustang secret. But emerging reports may have the skinny on one system which Ford is trying is darnedest to keep under its hat for the time being. That, according to unnamed sources cited by Motor Authority, is burnout control.
The system is reportedly designed to help novices execute the perfect smokey burnout - sort of like launch control, but specifically the opposite. The system could, according to elaborative speculation, lock the front brakes while spooling up the engine to optimal revolutions before dumping (or indicating the driver to do dump) the clutch. A cloud of tire smoke and a long pair of skid marks would then ensue.

Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack

Sat, May 30 2015

With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.

Amelia Island 2013: 50 years of the Ferrari-slaying Ford GT40

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Originally developed with the sole purpose of being a Ferrari rival to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Ford GT40 became a prominent racing machine in the 1960s in both Europe and the US. Not wanting to leave such an important car out of the fun, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance also took time out from its other celebrations to recognize the 50-year anniversary of the GT40.
Over its short lifespan, the GT40 was offered in a handful of configurations, but the classic short-tailed (Mk I and Mk II) bodystyles were well represented... especially in Gulf livery. James Glickenhaus (of Ferrari P4/5 fame) had his bright yellow Mk IV in the field, and there were several others in this bodystyle, including one that has seen plenty of time on the track judging by its chipped-up nose.
As a fitting statement for the car's lengthy racing history, GT40 Chassis Number 1075 won this year's Concours de Sport award. This car took home the checkered flag at Le Mans in 1968 and 1969, and racked up a total of six wins in just 11 races.
