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.

Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

One is a member of the Detroit Three and the maker of the Mustang, Fusion, Explorer and F-150. The other is an admitted loudmouthed, drunk-driving, crack-smoking mayor in Canada. Unfortunately for one, it shares its name with the other. Yes, Ford Motor Company is going to great lengths to keep its iconic Blue Oval logo from being appropriated by supporters of besieged Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
At a United Way event earlier this week, some of Mayor Ford's fans showed up with shirts that featured the automaker's logo with the words "Ford Nation," on them. Naturally, Mayor Ford signed them. FoMoCo was quick to issue an unhappy statement:
"Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped," spokesperson Jay Cooney said. There was also a statement from Ford of Canada's Twitter account after a user alerted the company:

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.

Shelby GT500 laps N"urburgring in under 7:40?

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

A couple of weeks ago we brought you footage and official times of the new Chevy Camaro Z/28 lapping the Nürburgring. With a 7:37.47 lap time, the Z/28 emerged as the fastest muscle car ever to lap the circuit. But what was missing from that picture was how fast the king of all Mustangs, the Shelby GT500, could manage to lap the Nordschleife.
Ford never released any information or footage of the GT500 on the Nürburgring that we were aware of - that is, until the guys at SVTPerformance.com put in a request for Mustang videos. Among the clips they received was never-seen, in-car footage of the Shelby GT500 lapping the circuit. And boy did it hustle.
Although not quite official, the video seems to show the GT500 lapped the venerated German track in a touch under 7:40. That would make it a tick or two faster than the Camaro ZL1 - but what of the Z/28? By Chevy's quoted time, the Z/28 is still faster than the GT500, but SVTPerformance suggests GM may have fudged the numbers a bit and scrubbed half a second or so off their lap time.
