I have sent to Alec a PDF Scan of a good example of this brochure, which became available in 1973. Alec will be adding this to the Technical folder at the header.

The first examples which were found at my dealer in January 1973 were in Swedish. I still have this example. I wrote to Parts Marketing in Sweden to see if an English version was available and received back a detailed translation, Sections 2 to 5 out of the Rally Assortment binder and a Swedish Price List from Eric Bertilsson of Saab Ana.
The English version of the brochure started to appear during the summer of 1973.

And you will notice some images which served as inspiration and motivation when I was preparing my original rally car 1972-1976 and the Troll from 1983-2013:-

Hi Woody.
In the corners of your glove box there are some screws. Betsy has similar, presumably fitted by the previous owner. Do they serve a purpose ? Always wondered ?

The screws in each corner of the glovebox lid hold the lid in place as the hinge had been cut.
A photo of yours would help.
