I am selling my Saleen that I have owned for almost 14 years now. It is car #85 of 113 S281 coupes produced in 1997. The reason I am selling is I just do not have time to give the attention the car needs. The car has 134,XXX miles and has never been in an accident. Have only used Mobil1 Synthetic oil and 93 octane fuel. In the past 3 years, when I have done most of the modifications, I have driven the vehicle maybe 2,500 miles. Here is a list of the modifications I have done.

- PI heads and intake manifold

- LT headers

- Flowmaster exhaust and custom piping

- One off custom hood

- SR Saleen wing

- Boyd Coddington 18x9/18x10 wheels

- Short throw shifter

- Smoked headlights

- Stage 3 cams

- Built Stage 3 T45 transmission

- King Cobra clutch

- 4.10 Ford Racing gears

- Eibach springs

- Custom blue paint job

I'm sure I missed a few more that I can't remember at the moment. Also have the factory hood and S281 wing if buyer wants.

Now for the list of issues the car has, given that it is 16 years old.

- Front bumper could be replaced, has some minor damage. It is urethane so no cracks, just flexed.

- Back bumper minor damage underneath vehicle. Not visible without looking underneath car.

- Cluster lights do not come on.

- Speedo gauge does not work properly.

- Heater does not work. Heater core needs to be replaced.

- Rear window needs to be re-tinted.

- Key mark on left, hood, and right side of car.

- Small dent on driver's door.

- Carpet in trunk could be redone.

- Could use a tune. Car runs fine, the idle sometimes is a bit low.

- Siren for alarm does not work. Alarm itself does work.

- Radio wiring needs to be checked as sound does not come out of speakers.

I'm doing my best to be upfront and honest about the condition of the vehicle. These, in my opinion, are mostly minor issues that I just don't have the time to work on. I have not had a chance to give the motor a good cleaning. Car has very good mods and is very fast but just sits in the garage. I have never dyno'd or taken it to the track, ever. NADA has the low value listed at $7,825. If you search for it you'll need to go to the classic section to find Saleen. I hope to find a good buyer that will have the time to fix these issues. If there are any questions or requests please feel free to ask. I can be contacted at 832-818-0792. Happy bidding!
