The original Ford Mustang was introduced on April 17, 1964, which means the pony car turned 59 just two days ago. Saleen, the California-based tuning firm and manufacturer of specialty high-performance sports cars, was among the first to congratulate the iconic sports car for its birthday by releasing the first teaser image of its own Saleen Mustang based on the S650 generation.
While we only have a single rendering showing the vehicle’s side profile, we can already tell Saleen has prepared some substantial changes to the pony's design. Starting with the front fascia – as far as we can see – it will be heavily redesigned, gaining new headlights, a new grille, a new bumper, and a new lower bumper lip. The result appears to be a more aggressive overall appearance from the front but we will have to wait until the final product is released to give our verdict.
