why do ppl do this.
There is a mustang saleen tt, that was featured in Muscle mustangs & fast fords octobers issue on ebay.. Why do ppl build really nice cars, that get into magazines just to sell them on ebay??

He obviousely sepnt a TON of time and money getting that car to the point it is at. However, he has obviousely had it for some time, built it to where he wanted it to be, and has grown bored with it. It is inevitable for most stangers. Surely he will move onto a newer, better project. He gets to use what he learned on this project mustang on the next car, with the satisfaction that, yeah, he built up that saleen, andis now doing something better. It is his hobby, and there is no "end" to a hobby like that.

...I think you are getting the wrong idea.
That red saleen is DAMN nice, and is built up (Twin Turbo and suspension work etc)
That silver thing you pictured is ugly as **** with that BMW front end.
Different reasoning for doing either. That red guy wanted to drive a damn nice sports vert. That silver guy wanted to get attention. i.e. Ricer

actually thats a legal NHRA 8 point cage in that car, so STFU. it looks like it was built up by modular powerhouse since the guy is running Tims stage 3 heads. he doesnt mail those out you have to have them installed at his shop. another modular powerhouse monster being sold.

edit: i didnt scroll all the way down. its a 10 point cage.

I've been away for a couple of weeks, but after reading through some of the previous posts it looks like mixedbreed is officially the new mustang boards jack off. Congrats mixbreed.
