2007 Mustang SaleenFord
Mustang "Parnelli Jones"
1771 Mi. #344 Signed by Steve Saleen
&
Parnelli Jones
In addition to Parnelli's Sharpie script on the metallic
dash, the
Saleen/Parnelli Jones Mustang comes with just about every Boss 302
cue from 1970-save for the obvious one-each tastefully performed on Grabber
Orange Mustang GTs that, following arrival at Saleen's Irvine facility from
Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan, assembly plant, are completely stripped down and
rebuilt to Saleen's specs. The nostalgic touches, applied in Irvine, consist
of black side and hood stripes, the latter framing a functional "shaker"
hood; a black decklid, rear spoiler, and louvered rear window cover; and
19-inch Minilite-inspired alloy wheels. Of course, all the powertrain and
chassis goodies are there, too, including a 3.73:1 rear-end, a Tremec
five-speed manual, specially calibrated Saleen N2 dampers and linear-rate
coil springs, a Watts Linkage on the live rear axle, 14-inch slotted front
brake discs with four-piston calipers, and the requisite 302-cubic-inch,
24-valve Ford modular V-8 replete with forged-aluminum pistons and
forged-steel connecting rods and crankshaft.
