Vehicle Description
In the long and storied history of the Ford Mustang, there have
been quite a few specialty models collectors tend to seek out. With
that said, the name Saleen has come to elicit a level of excitement
from both onlookers and enthusiasts, and for good reason. One look
at this 1989 Ford Mustang Saleen #720 we have for you today, and
you'll understand why. Dressed in its original Oxford White paint,
this 55,690-mile car still bears the same Saleen, Racecraft, and
#720 decals it came with from its eponymous production
facility.
Inside, the pewter/grey interior is a welcomed upgrade over the
stock Mustang. A set of form-fitting Recaro-style FloFit sport
seats hold both driver and passenger in place for any hot laps that
might be on the horizon, while a 170-mph speedometer and Momo
steering wheel provide plenty of feedback. And if the Saleen dash
plaque isn't enough to convince passengers that this is no ordinary
pony car, Steve's signature is in full view above the glove
box.
Under the hood, we find a glorious rendition of Ford's fabled 5.0.
In factory Saleen spec, this supercharged V-8 pumps out 292 hp and
325 lb-ft of torque, but this particular car has a dyno sheet that
proves it is far superior to the original setup. This pony car is a
full-on racehorse with 398 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque on tap. All
that power is channeled through a five-speed manual transmission
before heading out to the Ford 8.8-inch rear. Riding on a trick set
of 17-inch OE polished Saleen wheels wrapped in 225/45ZR-17 front
and wider 235/45ZR-17 rear rubber, this muscular Mustang looks as
if it is flexing from any angle thanks to its aggressive stance
courtesy of its lowered Eibach springs and Maximum Motorsports
adjustable camber/caster plates up front.

With its shorty headers, BBK cross pipe, and classic FlowMaster
exhaust, this 1989 Saleen Mustang #720 has an unforgettable growl
that only a modified 5.0 can make. Mustangs of almost any kind are
fun to drive and own, but once in a while, a vehicle that is just
special comes along. This early low-mileage example of Steve
Saleen's Mustang shows exactly why he and his company have carved
out a legacy as the second-longest-running American-made production
car, second only to the venerable Corvette. If you've never
experienced a Saleen Mustang, maybe it's time, and this is your
chance to own a true muscle car. Call today!
