1988 Ford Mustang SALEEN convertible in EXCELLENT condition - ONLY 14,500 MILES!

1988 Ford Mustang

Up for sale is a very rare and very original 1988 SALEEN MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE in incredibly clean condition with ONLY 14,500 MILES!!!Saleen number 516 (of 703 cars built) features its original black shiny paint on gray cloth interior with the original black power top with glass rear window.Per the included Saleen Documents, his is only one of 13 cars built to these specifications in 1988.I am biased, ut truly believe the fox body Saleen's are excellent investments as collector cars.Finding an original one in this condition with this low documented mileage is a rarity.

Car History:

I purchased the car from the 3rd owner in October of 2013 out of Missouri and is the third Saleen Mustang I have owned.I recently sold my '06 and '00 S281s on eBay (see last pic) and unfortunately need to sell a few more cars to finance a new home purchase for my family.This Saleen has been stored in a secure facility on a trickle charger under the included California Car Cover and along with my other vehicles has been looked after by my personal mechanic who starts and drives each car at least once a month to keep them running well.

Drive train:

The legendary 302 5.0L V8 engine is completely stock and is in excellent running condition.Mated with a slick shifting 5 speed manual transmission, he car is a joy to drive.This Saleen came with the optional Traction-Lok rear axle and the 3.55 axle ratio.I have driven this car on several regional rallies and am amazed at how smooth and balanced the engine is.Even at 28 years old, t has plenty of power and cruises comfortable at highway speeds.

Exterior:

The factory original black paint is glossy and without issue.The convertible top and glass rear window are original and again, n excellent shape.All four wheelsare free of curb rash and any discoloration.The tires were replaced due to age and have less than 1,500 miles on them.All glass is free of chips/cracks and are clear.The car has no rust, o dents, as had no body work, nd the paint is original and is truly impressive for the age.

One of the most unique aspects about the fox body Saleen cars is the graphics package they came with which are all original and are in great shape on this car.In fact, ery few Saleen's of this vintage still have the ORIGINAL windshield "Saleen Mustang" script banner which this one does.All of the script: ID number on the bumper, 302" on the hood, heel center caps, nd "Race Craft" on the fender decals are original and in great condition as are the lower body tri-colored decals.There are NO reproduction graphics on this car...all original!!!

Interior:

The interior is gray cloth with red piping and truly reflects the low mileage of the car.There are absolutely no stains, o rips, o cracks, o missing parts in the interior.The factory ashtray cover is even fully operational which is rare for any fox body Mustang.The gauges are Saleen specific as is the shifter, D plaque, nd Momo steering wheel.Steve Saleen's autograph resides on the dash as well.The OEM Pioneer stereo and EQ work perfectly as do the four speakers they pump music to.All switches and electronics are fully operational.

Misc.:

The car has its original R12 A/C system which DOES blow cold.The fan controls, efrost, nd heat work fine as well.All electronics operate just fine.The underbody of the car is also very clean including the original Ford mufflers and exhaust.

Included with the purchase are maintenance history paperwork, riginal Owner's Manual, span>Radio codes, riginal convertible boot, oth sets of original keys, nd a Marti Report.
