as promised the 96 looking a little worse for wear in 1990 (Montego driver pulled out in front of me from a side junction and then just stopped)



Off topic for the V4, but the last 900 T16S I owned met a similar fate, wheels up in a ditch, walked away with just a bump on my head, testament to SAAB's build strength! (I loved that car!!)






Also started playing with front panel fittings

Finally back out in the garage now the weather has warmed up (things were getting "chippy" in the cold)

Started putting together the front panel - came together well!

The "Face" of the car in place!


I want the bits you can't see to look good too

Where about's are you in Canada. It is a big country.
I just bought a 1968 95 rust bucket in Quebec and bring it back to the Toronto area. Funny enough it is RHD. These cars were never sold here. The started bring them into Canada with the 99

Not to far away then. Good to know I have a resource nearby to ask questions. I have owned and own several Saabs but never this old. Where abouts is the one one off hwy7 (and what intersection)

It was the gas station at the end of the 407 (Paddock Garage and AMCO petrol station) only saw it there a couple of times and was in pretty rough shape!
What other SAABs have you had?
