$900.00 OBO, don't be afraid to offer. Only needs alternator (belt is off for alternator exchange, as well as the tire for access, but the tire will be put back on) to run n go. Brand New Battery, one run in. the alternator bolt was rounded out, now drilled and harder than my cheap tap bits. I'm getting another truck; don't have the time for this Sweet Bessy. :* t'was magn?fico. car goes hour and back 4 days a week for school, works all the time except for few times it doesn't, then always back up n running like a beast / platypus. Basically The unit needs normal repair and has moderate usage at a 198,892 mile Saab, so electronically should be assumed at this point; the car has the typical factory low voltage never corrected, radio's works comparable the to 90's; digital display is old/missing elements/voltage and security locked, I don't call tech support much, that's what it takes, Once you get the code from them the 6 disk changer is in the trunk. Saab phone conversation. The driver seat is wonky. Don't press up , serious time and effort to make it go down. also driver seat is slightly damaged; immediate to the exterior of the car. Occasional non start, most likely due to the low voltage , or a problem with the centrally located ignition switch in the ignition from time and H2O; Different fixes, profit gaining product obsolescence. It needs most seals ideally for restoration (leaks oil/trans, the power steering from the reservoir bottom - new line and reservoir would be best; get a reservoir from a junker if you can), so take it apart and put it together w/ maintenance checks and minor parts for perfection in soon to be classic taste. The gear box regulator mechanism, possibly called a neutral safety switch, but Saab style, on top, under the battery, if new replacement $300-400, said to be repairable with cleaning and greasing, mechanical/electrical component. causes gear slip up 1 out of 20-48 days, stuck wont shit for a sec or until it does. needs to be fixed for proper restoration, or child care purposes. The roof leaks in moderately heavy rain or with sitting, this can be repaired at a shop though at a low cost to value ratio. Blown spare on Saab normal rim in the trunk. New valve cover gasket I installed due to small leak, 3 months ago approximately. |

Saab US bankruptcy plan gets legal green-light
Thu, 18 Jul 2013It feels utterly bizarre that we're still talking about Saab, but Reuters is reporting that the bankrupt Swedish manufacturer's American arm has gotten approval from the US Bankruptcy Court to liquidate its assets and pay back creditors. As part of the plan, secured creditors like Ally Financial will receive full repayment. Unsecured creditors, consisting of those affected by abandoned leases and contracts will get anywhere from 25 to 82 percent of their money back.
There are currently $77 million in unsecured claims, according to Reuters, but that number doesn't include claims from former Saab dealers. Naturally, the entire affair is full of lawyers and legalese. A trust formed on the Saab side will be negotiating with creditors and their affiliates in an attempt to reduce claims against Saab. This sounds like the start of a long and sordid affair...
GM recalling 316k vehicles due to headlamp faults

1999 Saab 9-3 Viggen is a Swede worth remembering on MotorWeek
Sun, Aug 30 2015Today, Saab survives in name only after a protracted series of bankruptcies and attempted comebacks with new owners. At the turn of the millennium, however, the brand was still able to make some great cars, though. MotorWeek is showing off one of its very best in this vintage review for the 1999 9-3 Viggen. The jet-inspired Viggen was the pinnacle of everything Saab's engineers could do at the time. Starting with the standard 9-3, the suspension was hunkered down to improve handling and lower bodywork was added for better aerodynamics. Now that the exterior looked the part, the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder was tweaked to make 225 horsepower and 252 pound-feet of torque. While that output may not sound hugely impressive by modern standards, those were strong numbers in the day, and the following model year made even more power. After some time behind the wheel of the VIggen, MotorWeek came away quite impressed with this Swede. While the Viggen might not have offered the full capability of high-performance, European contemporaries like the BMW M3, Saab really showed its strengths with this model.
