1989 SAAB 900T CONVERTIBLE
122K miles. Automatic.
Now, the Saab story as they say. I purchased this car in 1994. That's right, 94! I bought it at an insurance auction in Georgia. It's always been in the south so no rust whatsoever. They had totaled the car out because of fire. The battery had caught fire and burned the right front corner of the car. (See picture) Over the next 4 years I slowly replaced everything necessary for it to be inspected and roadworthy. Hood, distributor, wiring harness from headlights to ignition switch, etc etc. Never any damage inside the car. Never any structural either. There is a small scratch on the right rear corner of the hood. (see picture) It could be touched up by a good artist.
Outside, the body is laser straight. Laser straight! Original paint except, of course, the hood and right fender.
SPG wheels with new tires.
Around 1999 or 2000 I sold it to a friend who drove it, then sold it to his son, who sold it back to me after a year or so, around 2001. Six years later I registered it again in 2007. While his son owned it, he replaced the steering rack, shocks, convertible top and a factory rebuilt transmission. Since he sold it back to me, in the 12 years since, I've put about 5K miles on it. Reupholstered the interior and many other little things. The back seats are original leather and the front seats are identical vinyl. This car has been well cared for.
The engine: SPG 9 stage one turbo kit. Injectors, APC box, adjustable fuel regulator, by pass valve etc. Modified Mitsubishi turbo to eliminate bottom end lag. This car is fast!!
The air conditioning is removed (compressor, condensor, drier and lines) but will come with the car. Since it is probably going to sell to someone in the north (no one knows what a Saab is in the deep south) I can't see installing it at this time. It all worked and will be in the trunk.
Also, new timing chain and tensioner installed two years ago. That's why the ac is off the car. In order to replace the timing chain, the engine has to come out of the car. Oh yes, super stereo system. And yes, the electric antennae goes up and down like it should. Comes with boxes of miscellaneous parts.
The car has been sitting in my garage for the last 5 years. Time to go.
Look at my feedback and buy with confidence.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:

Spyker to appeal dismissal of Saab lawsuit against GM

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

It seems as if Spyker CEO Victor Muller has made a decision on whether or not to pursue a legal battle between his company and General Motors. Spyker has announced it will appeal a US District Court decision to throw out the company's lawsuit against GM. As you may recall, on June 10 Judge Gershwin Drain ruled tht GM had a right to approve or disapprove Spyker's sale of Saab to Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile. Spyker sued GM for some $3 billion, claiming that the American automaker had forced Saab into bankruptcy by stopping Spyker from transferring intellectual property to its Chinese partner.
Spyker has said only that it plans to appeal the decision. Until now, the company has been silent about the ruling. GM, meanwhile, has said it is pleased with the original outcome. You can read the quick Spyker press release below for more information.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.
