The SCC was Saleen's tribute to Fords 25th anniversary of the Mustang. There was only 161 of these cars produced. This one is in excellent condition inside and out and is mechanically solid. The only issues with this car is the air does not blow cold air and it is missing on shock rubber on drivers side in the rear and the shock rattles other than that nothing else needs any attention. Saleen did engine modifications for the first time on theses cars so unlike your normal 225 hp mustang these produce 294 hp. Also they originally did not come with a back seat but this one has one. I do know a guy that can probably hook a person up with an back interior panel that originally was in the car. Other than the back seat the only other thing that is modified is I put a cold air intake on it but I do still have original air box. Also I have the original ssc wheels that go with the car. I put brand new wheels and tires on it shortly after I bought it which have about 500 miles on them. I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story but if anyone needs any more information just send me a message and I will be glad to answer any questions. Almost forgot this one is number 184 as you can see by the tags and is also signed by Steve Saleen himself. It is faded out but you can still see it on the passenger side of the dash. This car is originally from the south and stored winters while I owned it so body is pretty much rust free.
Forgot to mention it does have brand new high pressure fuel pump and new adjustable fuel regulator for those of you that might want to modify things or possibly supercharge it the fuel pump will pump plenty of gas.

A few questions have been raised about damage and repainting of the car. Just so it is clear yes the car did suffer some damage and has been repainted. I do not have a lot of info or details about that except it involved the drivers door and passenger front and it was all fixed when I purchased it. I can tell you it was a really good job of repairing. By looking at it and driving it you wouldn't know. Drives and handles great and all the door, fender, and other body gaps and lines match up pretty much perfectly. Also all the decals and trim are replaced as they were originally as far as I can see by comparing to any pictures that I researched.
On Sep-19-13 at 07:37:23 PDT, seller added the following information:
Had a few request about some more pictures. So I added a few hopefully they will give everybody a better idea just how good of shape the car is in from top to bottom. I took a couple from under the car as you can see pretty rust free. I also took some of the window moldings and weather stripping to show they are all in good condition also. There is no scrapes or cracks in the ground affects either. As far as other scratches or damage there really are not any except one touched up spot on the corner by rear spoiler little bigger than a quarter and one little flaw in the paint on the front side of the rear spoiler about the size of a dime. Could not really get a good picture of either getting that close with my camera to try and get them in a picture just ended up as big blur. Either one not real noticeable. Really nice car inside and out and only reason I am selling I just don't drive it and I need a new truck.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Ford EcoSport Storm concept swallows a Raptor in Sao Paulo
Sun, 02 Nov 2014Ford rolled into the Sao Paulo Motor Show with some pretty cool crossovers in tow, the awesomest of all being the EcoSport Storm concept shown above, which draws its inspiration directly from the F-150 SVT Raptor. It packs a lower grille clearly derived from the now-famous muscle truck, as well as a Blue Storm paint job, black and silver trim, special graphics, lower body cladding and 215/75 R15 off-road tires. Don't go holding your breath for a supercharged V8, though; made locally in Brazil, India and Thailand, the tiny EcoSport is typically powered by a three- or four-cylinder engine.
The Storm isn't the only specially prepared Ecosport on show, however, joined as it is by another pair called Beauty and the Beast. Beauty is decked out in matte copper with a black roof, LED fog lamps, 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires and an interior complete with four individual bucket seats, leather upholstery and a full multimedia suite. The Beast, meanwhile, takes a sportier approach with a white pearl finish, blue and orange trim and three-bar grille. It also wears 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps, but its interior swaps out its rear seats for a bike rack.
Joining the EcoSport show cars was an Edge crossover equipped with all the latest technologies and done up in bright red with three-bar grille, bulging hood, and an interior featuring 10-inch touchscreens and leather upholstery. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
