The only vintage, pre-production tease imagery I can recall during the digital-age for Saleen vehicles are the 2009 570 and 2010 Mustang models.

Both SPV and Saleen/SMS teased their Mustang offering. The SPV Mustang began production about five months after its SEMA debut. The Saleen/Frank Mustang went into production about a year after we saw final renderings.

During the print-world 1990s both the 1994 and 1999 Mustang renderings were teased in Magazines, but lead time changes the scope.

Anniversary models have been teased, but these are never a redesign and we typically have some idea as to what we will see.

We consider the 2010 460 / 2011 302 / 302 Black Label as Phil Frank's last complete Saleen vehicle design.
