Is this the Holy Grail of S351's?

The seller certainly isn't shy about the BIN price.

I agree.


I ripped into the listing a bit yesterday on another board. Mark, I too don't like that fact that the headlamps are faded. He is a bit mis informed. Probably got it privately though some estate sale.

Do you guys know a JJackRoush on Ebay? His name is Charlie and he sold one of his Dad's cars a white R Code last year with around 500 miles on it for 45k. This guy needs a kick in the head.

My R-code I sold a while back was just as clean and had 7,000 miles on it just like Marks.

Mid 40 car on a good day. It will be years before you see a S-351 in the price range. I agree that it has sat outside for awhile or under a porch. The headlights are faded badly. One thing to point out on a car like this is that the seals in the vortech will probably be dried out and leak. Just a heads up.

Having seriously considered the purchase of a S351 from Bob Baker Ford in Mission Valley (the only Saleen dealer in San Diego @ the time) during the summer of '98, I know that this owner's BIN price is about $10K higher than a fully optioned S351 w/applicable taxes & fees when it was brand new.

SVT,

I agree. My 95 was the highest optioned coupe for 95 and if I remember the sticker on it was 63k and change. No mark up.

The car isn't the only one that started out as a GT. He obviously isn't a collector. Just a dealer.

Here's the new link, in case it ends, so we can look back and see what happened.

Nobody has bid, maybe his absurd original price caused a lack of confidence to buyers. I for one know that when someone lists something for a ridiculous price, makes me think they know nothing or very little. So if they make one mistake, who wants to risk other more catastrophic mistakes.
