Not
satisfied with Ford’s own “California
Special” Mustang? A muscle car brought to you by Hertz not making your
blood boil? Then perhaps Steve Saleen can light a fire under your ass with his new Saleen/Parnelli Jones Limited Edition
Mustang that not only does a great job harkening back to the past with visuals inspired by Jones’ own Grabber
Orange Boss 302 Mustang from the early ‘70s, but also adds to the Mustang’s moxy with a 302 cid V8 that
produces 370 SAE hp and 370 ft-lbs. of torque at a low, low, low 4,000 RPM. Further engine upgrades allow Steve’s
new Stang to rev higher than most Mustangs ever will.
Other special touches include 302 valve covers, a black
striped “shaker” hood, a 1970 replica rear wing and rear window quarter panels. There are even removable and
reusable static cling decals included, one of Parnelli’s famous number 15 and the other a blue oval logo.
Suspension and brake upgrades as well as an interior tweak that invites the orange inside round out the 2007
Saleen/Parnelli Jones Limited Edition Mustang. While we don’t know how many units will be produced, we do know
they’ll be sold in the mid-to-high $50,000 range.
