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 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop is the kind of early pony car that gets straight to the point: a compact coupe, a small-block Ford V8, a four-speed manual, and rear-wheel drive. Showing approximately 17,433 miles, this example is finished in Caspian Blue over a black reupholstered interior and keeps the classic Mustang recipe intact while adding just enough personalization to make it feel more driver-focused. The 289ci V8, Hurst shifter, manual gearbox, and clean first-generation styling give it the sort of analog character that makes these cars so enjoyable even decades later.
This 1967 Ford Mustang GTA Restomod takes the classic first-generation Mustang formula and adds a serious catalog of modern performance and comfort upgrades. Showing approximately 301 miles, this example has received an extensive refresh centered around a 347ci Blueprint Engines stroker V8 rated at 440 horsepower, an AOD heavy-duty performance automatic, and a 3.55 Posi-Traction rear differential. Its mechanical upgrades are matched by a thoroughly updated cabin with Procar reclining seats, Dakota Digital instrumentation, Vintage Air, power windows, and a modernized audio system, making this a far more capable and usable take on the original GTA recipe.
This 1968 Ford Mustang Hardtop takes the familiar first-generation Mustang formula and adds a useful mix of performance and drivability upgrades. Finished in Gulfstream Aqua over a reupholstered Aqua vinyl interior, this example is powered by a 302ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor and a C4 3-speed automatic transmission. Front and rear disc brakes, air conditioning, an aftermarket power steering pump, upgraded shocks, and an aftermarket exhaust make it more approachable for regular cruising, while the aftermarket GT-style steering wheel and tachometer add a sportier feel from behind the wheel. Showing approximately 43,718 miles, this Mustang offers classic coupe styling with a number of well-chosen updates aimed at making it more enjoyable on the road.
This 1930 Ford Model A Phaeton Hot Rod takes the simplicity of early Ford design and turns it into a traditional open-wheel hot rod with a strong period-inspired attitude. Finished in red over a tan interior, it is powered by a 350ci V8 topped with triple 2-barrel carburetors and paired with an automatic transmission. The chopped top has been removed, leaving a more open profile beneath the tan convertible soft top, while the exposed engine, staggered aftermarket wheels, dropped front axle, and side-exit exhaust give the car the unmistakable stance and mechanical presence enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod build.
