1988 Saleen R Surfaces on eBay

Here’s your chance obtain a little bit of Saleen history. Performance Autosport has put a 1988 Saleen Mustang R up for sale on eBay for one of their clients, giving someone the chance to own one of just eight race cars built to race in the SCCA Escort Endurance Series between 1987 and 1989. This particular car is chassis #0019R and competed in eight races in 1988 with Steve Saleen, George Follmer, Tommy Archer and others behind the wheel. The car didn’t win the championship the year, but it did manage to claim six podium finishes and a win at the Mosport 24 Hours. Performance Autosport says the car is mostly in race-ready condition and simply needs a new set of tires and a quick prep before it can go out on track. The asking price? Just $75,000.
