Description
Vehicle Description 2001 Ford Mustang $29,000 Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this 2001 Ford Mustang Saleen Tribute, finished in Mineral Gray with a Tan interior. While this car is not represented as a factory-built Saleen, it has been extensively modified with Saleen components and performance upgrades throughout the body, interior, engine, drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems. Under the hood is a modified 4.6-liter V8 equipped with twin 57mm Garrett turbochargers. Engine upgrades listed with the car include Stage 3 custom turbo Comp Cams camshafts, Trick Flow cylinder heads, and a ported and polished intake. Fuel delivery is handled by an Aeromotive dual fuel-pump system, and the car is tuned for 93-octane fuel. A full custom 3-inch stainless-steel exhaust system completes the engine and exhaust combination. A Dynojet Research dyno sheet accompanies the car and records a maximum of 527.07 horsepower at 6,110 RPM and 523.46 lb-ft of torque at 5,100 RPM. Power is sent through a T-5 5-speed manual transmission equipped with a heavy-duty race clutch and pressure plate. A short-throw shifter handles gear changes. Additional drivetrain upgrades include a Ford Racing 3.31 rear gear, Ford Racing third-member brace, aluminum driveshaft, and Auburn limited-slip differential. A major part of the build is its Saleen-inspired exterior. The modification documentation states that the car is equipped with a full polyurethane Saleen body kit sourced from Saleen rather than a fiberglass reproduction. The hood and front bumper have been repainted, and the lighting has been updated with HID headlights, new taillights, and a new third brake light. Inside, the Mustang has been fitted with front and rear seats from a 2003 Mustang Cobra. Instrumentation includes a Saleen 200-mph gauge cluster, additional pillar-mounted gauges, and an additional RPM racing gauge. G-Force harnesses have also been installed while the standard seatbelts remain in place. The audio system consists of a Pioneer touchscreen stereo, 10-inch JL Audio subwoofer, and Pioneer amplifier. The battery has been relocated to the trunk, and a rear shock-tower bar and brace has also been installed. The suspension and chassis have received extensive upgrades of their own. The car features an adjustable front suspension, upgraded K-member, and Saleen Racecraft springs at all four corners manufactured by Eibach. A rear shock-tower brace further ties into the chassis modifications. Braking equipment includes Saleen brake components and rotors at both the front and rear. Power steering and power brakes remain part of the car's equipment. The Mustang currently rides on Gloss Black SVE wheels in a staggered configuration, measuring 18x9 in front and 18x10 at the rear. They are paired with Nitto 555 tires listed as 255/35/18 in front and 305/45/18 at the rear. The documentation provided with the car also lists a set of chrome Saleen wheels measuring 18x9 in front and 18x10 at the rear. Additional equipment includes air conditioning, an AM/FM-equipped audio system, cruise control, power windows, and power locks. The documentation also notes a recent oil change. From the twin 57mm Garrett turbochargers and modified 4.6-liter V8 to the T-5 5-speed, upgraded rear differential, Saleen-sourced body components, Cobra seating, Saleen instrumentation, Racecraft suspension, upgraded brakes, and aftermarket audio system, this Mustang has received modifications throughout nearly every major area of the car.
