Looks Like Saleen Is Done

08-12-08: In clearinghouse style auction with little warning, Saleen Inc/ASC is putting what looks like the entire operation up for sale today. Virtually everything in the house is on sale including some 20 brand new unconverted 2008 Mustang GT’s, all remaining Saleen parts that would have been put onto cars. If that was not haunting enough, the entire factory lot of machines, tools, cabinets, office equipment is being sold off as well.

This does not bode well for the company which says it is “restructuring and consolidating”. The auction being handled by Meidma Recovery & Sales is reminiscent to the one that was held for Unique Performance of Texas. That company had been raided by the authorities and sold off to the highest bidders right down to boxes of No. 2 pencils.

In this auction you will find everything you could want to build a new Saleen Mustang. Looking through the auction catalogue you can find brand new Saleen wheels starting at a minimum bid of $10. If you want a new 2008 Mustang GT coupe, there are 20 of them starting at $100 each. A full palette full of Saleen leather seat covers starts at a miserly $5 or you can buy a cat back exhaust system starting at $10.

All the factory furniture, tooling, and facilities are on the block as well. Computers, milling machines, work tables and office equipment hastily piled is listed for sale. Want a CAD/CAM station, they are selling them.

If you have a bank full of cash this could really be an opportunity as the auction has had little forward notice or publicity. Check out the catalog, drool over it. Act fast and bid well because you could really cash in.

Looks like all the ones on that first link are completed but my god the deals people got. 80 fan shrouds for an F-150 for under 8 bucks a piece? Granted what I would do with them I have no idea but c'mon!

times like this i wish i had a mustang....nothing like picking up 10 pirelli tires for 10 bucks lol.

this isnt the first time Saleen has been bought out. The Original owner is putting out cars for chrysler now. Look for a challenger soon.

Starting BID is $10, it won't stay there lol.

Pretty crazy though.

lol

yup, The Company SMS is the orignal owner of Saleens company when he got back in, think back to the early 90s Saleen mustang and you will know why they sold it.

All the items are for pickup ....?

They are not over. They merged with a sister company and will be sharing the same facilities instead of having 2 separate ones. They sold every single thing at the saleen factory, including cars, parts, and machines. brand new under 100 miles on them 08 mustang gt's, unconverted were selling for about 17k.

Mhmmmm.

who wants to go in on this with me, buy a bunch of stuff, rent a uhaul and drive to cali, bring it all back, and we split it 50/50?

I'm serious.....or at least buy a bunch of stuff and maybe try to get a shipping company involved? Theres money to be made here people...
