Description
Only 500 Saleen Parnelli Jones Edition Mustangs were produced for 2007, and this example—#227—is a highly preserved, low‑mileage, one‑owner car. Built as a modern tribute to Parnelli Jones’ 1970 Trans‑Am Boss 302, each S302‑PJ received Grabber Orange paint, Boss‑style graphics, shaker hood, retro pins, orange interior accents, and a dash panel signed by Steve Saleen and Parnelli Jones. Unlike a simple appearance package, Saleen re‑engineered the car front to back, creating a 400‑hp, naturally aspirated 5.0L 302 by stroking the factory 4.6L and adding ported heads, forged internals, high‑RPM valvetrain, aluminum flywheel, and Saleen PowerFlash tuning.
This car has 11,600 miles, has always been garage‑kept, never driven in rain or snow, and retains factory‑correct paint with no damage or bodywork. Annual servicing and careful sorting have kept it mechanically exceptional. A major upgrade is the Tremec 6‑speed with dual‑friction clutch, improving drivability over the original 5‑speed. Additional owner upgrades include Kooks long‑tube headers, cold‑air intake, MagnaFlow X‑pipe, and a Moroso catch can.
Saleen’s Watts‑link rear suspension, Racecraft springs, shocks, and sway bars give the car sharp, predictable handling. This example adds Steeda frame‑rail and torque‑box braces plus upgraded Bilstein front struts and rear shocks. Brakes feature refinished Saleen calipers with 14‑inch slotted/vented rotors and performance pads.
