There are seven generations of Mustangs up to now, and every generation has its fans. From the iconic first all the way to the current one, everyone loves a Mustang. Let’s take a look at a generation that didn’t initially get the love that it deserved; the fourth generation. Introduced in 1994 and based on a heavily modified and updated third-gen or Fox Body Mustang platform, the fourth generation sported Ford’s curvy looks of the Nineties. However, it didn’t skip the V8 powerplant; as evidenced by this 1997 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 that’s up for sale right now. This 69,800-mile car comes with a Marti report showing that it’s 1 of 1 specced this way, and has undergone a recent servicing too. So why not grab it while you can, after all it’s going to be a classic in a few more years.
Exterior and Interior
This 1997 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 comes in red, and is a pre-facelift fourth generation. While many fourth gen punters run towards the post-facelift, 1998 onwards cars, pre-facelift cars like this have a certain sleekness and poise to their persona. This particular car also bears some Saleen and S281 decals, and moves on a set of five-spoke silver alloy wheels. The car also sports a ducktail-style rear lip spoiler. The interior of this 1997 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 is typical Nineties, and comes with features such as power locks, power windows and power mirrors. You’ve got black leather-upholstered seating for up to four adults, with front bucket seats. You’ve also got air conditioning, an AM/FM radio cassette head unit, white-faced dials, and Saleen-embroidered floor mats. You’ve also got a Sony CD changer installed in the trunk, which barely eats away at the generous space available. Yes, this car is easily pressed into family duties, which is one of the characteristics that Ford wanted for their pony car from the get-go.
Engine
The gallop in this 1997 Ford Mustang Saleen S281 comes from its naturally aspirated 4.6-liter Modular V8 that pushes out a reported 210+ horsepower to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox. Power steering and power disc brakes are present too, for an easy driving experience.
This 1992 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 takes the lightweight Fox-body formula and turns the performance dial well past stock. Showing approximately 80,783 miles, this example is powered by a 347ci stroker V8 with Edelbrock electronic fuel injection and backed by a Tremec 3550 5-speed manual transmission. Twisted Wedge cylinder heads, upgraded valve springs, an Edelbrock EFI intake manifold, heavy-duty water pump, and aftermarket engine-management components all point to a build centered on stronger naturally aspirated performance. Add in SVE wheels, Nitto NT555 tires, upgraded brakes, and an aftermarket exhaust, and this LX becomes the kind of modified Fox-body that speaks directly to Mustang enthusiasts.
The 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop captures the formula that made the first-generation Mustang such an immediate success: compact proportions, unmistakable styling, and an approachable V8-powered driving experience. Showing approximately 17,855 miles, this example is powered by a 289ci V8 backed by a three-speed automatic transmission and finished in Champagne Beige over a Palomino interior. Black dual racing stripes and lower body accents give the otherwise elegant color combination a more aggressive edge, while Styled Steel wheels, raised-white-letter Cooper Cobra tires, power steering, aftermarket air conditioning, and several underhood upgrades make this Mustang a well-rounded classic with both visual presence and useful drivability enhancements.
The 1967 Ford Mustang has long been one of the most recognizable shapes in American performance history, and this Eleanor-style restomod takes that familiar silhouette in a much more aggressive direction. Showing just 375 miles, this build combines a 302ci V8 with Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, a Holley HyperSpark ignition system, a Ford C5 automatic transmission with a shift kit, and a long list of comfort and convenience upgrades. The exterior treatment is equally distinctive, pairing Emerald Green and copper with Eleanor-style fiberglass body components, custom graphics, copper-painted aftermarket wheels, and a custom hood accent. Inside, a reupholstered TMI Whiskey two-tone cabin, power accessories, air conditioning, aftermarket vintage gauges, and a tilt steering column give this Mustang a much more modern driving environment without losing its classic character.
This 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Hot Rod is a compact, old-school street rod built around one of hot rodding’s most recognizable early-Ford shapes. Showing approximately 5,979 miles, it combines a lightweight roadster body with V8 power, an automatic transmission, and a distinctly traditional custom presentation. The black exterior is contrasted by purple pinstriping and flame graphics, while extensive chrome and polished engine hardware gives the exposed powerplant plenty of visual impact. With its staggered wheel setup, side-exit exhaust, custom aluminum dashboard, and vivid purple accents, this Model T delivers the stripped-down, mechanical personality enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod.
This 1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod takes one of Ford’s most iconic early body styles and turns it into something far more rowdy. Showing just 470 miles, it blends upright Model A proportions with the ingredients enthusiasts expect from a traditional street rod: a 302ci V8, 4-barrel carburetor, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, aftermarket suspension, and a custom exhaust system. What really gives this car its personality, though, is the visual treatment. The Lilac Metallic finish, custom devil and flame airbrush artwork, black vinyl roof, chrome trim, and polished wheels make it the kind of hot rod that stands out immediately rather than trying to imitate a factory restoration. The rebuilt title brand should also be noted.
Few cars capture the spirit of American hot rodding quite like a 1933 Ford three-window coupe, and this 1933 Ford Model 40 3-Window Coupe Hot Rod leans fully into that tradition. Showing just 4,563 miles, it pairs the unmistakable proportions of a prewar Ford coupe with a seriously upgraded mechanical package centered around a 383ci stroker V8. Holley Sniper EFI, a 200-4R 4-speed automatic, four-wheel disc brakes, Vintage Air climate control, aftermarket instrumentation, and a fully reworked interior make this much more than a nostalgia piece. Finished in a custom Firehouse Red paint job, it has the stance, sound, and visual drama enthusiasts expect from a proper hot rod, while incorporating the kind of upgrades that make it far easier to enjoy beyond the show field.
