I’m 100% in favor of this suggestion. 🙌

The amount of crappy ads is amazing. People are lazy now and don’t seem to care. My friends and I trade links to ads that are so poorly written and the pictures are so poor. It’s almost laughable these days.

@MWILSON7 I’m going to have to 🤐 As a former broadcast engineer from 25 years ago the modern internet broadcast age has brought about so many failures. Proper English is one in the ads that is awful.

Thanks Chet. Not everyone thinks about those things affecting their investment.

I believe you’ve proven my point that there are a lot of assumptions drawn on where the influence came from. No one at Ford has ever said specifically what it was. I have magazines with articles on that Roush car from 25+ years ago. I could see where the idea is viable too. The SAAC cars had A LOT in common with the 93 Cobra. More parts than the one off custom prototype Roush did for 1989. The 93 cobra had a cast GT40 style intake and iron GT40 heads which were cast and iron versions of what was used on the SAAC cars. The side skirts and details of the SAAC more closely resemble the 93 cobra than the Roush prototype to me. I’ve been around both cars and I’m making my own conclusions. To each their own. Either way, it’s a good thing the 93 cobra happened because ever since 1993, Ford has had a high performance Mustang in the lineup. One could argue that without the 93 Cobra we wouldn’t have the modern GT500’s or the GTD. Things would likely look different than they are now.

Owner is top notch! Has a great collection too.

@@PuristMotorsports He also has the #2 M81 race car and ALL the SVO's!

Yup! He and I chatted a good bit about both cars. Kendal is a great guy! Plus the other cars he has are select as well. Mark knows him really well. Just need to make a trip and we can do video on those rare pieces there.

Around that for sure now. And that price was for the less expensive MkII. 😳 you could buy a 911 for equal or less.

51k is 115k in today’s money.

There’s something about the color. I can remember seeing these color cars and trucks and even the Astro vans from GM in it and just not really liking it too much. The color is eye catching. The older I get I do believe it has become nostalgic and has grown on me immensely. It was a color that didn’t sell well with the Fox Mustangs. But now it’s iconic and highly sought after. I’ve said it before but it reminds me of the violet (purple) E36 M3’s that are now sought after. Cool colors from the 90’s.

The whole interior conversion required a floor pan from the S550. Mainly because of the size of the 10 speed auto. The same shop did the whole build and they aren’t building for clients. It’s like Jay Leno’s garage. They only work on cars in the collection or help out close friends.

@@willitohernandez1094 it’s anyone’s guess. Easily a 6 figure car. As to how far into six figures is really impossible to guess.

Ok, just figured youd have more of an idea than me. Was just curious. 5.0 foxbodys here in long island Ny have gone up in price. Few years ago weren't worth much. ​@@PuristMotorsports

Good thing you jokingly asked!! I want to say that Calypso one had the rare Logic Wheels on it. There’s one in that area that is supposedly still with its original owner. 93 Cobras were a steal for what they were. Somewhat expensive. But not near as expensive as a Saleen.

@PuristMotorsports I remember the price on that 93 Cobra. I looked at the MSRP on the car. The price was $21,500.

Good eye. All 87-93 Saleen’s had upgraded 5 lug all wheel disc brakes.

Somewhat rare. The earlier versions that used Velcro are rare-er.

Yup! I got to see it before the world did. Filmed it for the new owner rescuing it. Full length video on my channel.

I have them. Shoot me an email. [email protected].

@@patmeyer3613 interesting. I have a 90 gt vert and never got into saleen versions. They sounded great and better than the stock 5.0.

A deal was made after the auction completed for the high bid price. bringatrailer.com/listing/1989-ford-mustang-saleen-14/

@PuristMotorsports well that's more then I expected. But since I got you on the line 89 with 80k miles good shape. After market radio and newer tires what would be a good starting price? I don't wanna insult the man.

@CCWFOX beauty is in the eye of the beholder there. My best recommendation is to look on BaT and Hemmings auctions and see what recent results are on cars that match the condition and mods if the one you’re looking at. It’s nearly impossible to price a car on a description alone. And I’m not one to put a value on one because it’s worth what the buyer and seller agree upon. In the Saleen world there are so many nuances that affect value. The best thing is the more original the more value there is in the car. There are exceptions to that though. Best of luck in the adventure. The journey is part of the fun.
