1976 Saab 99 Ems U.s. Version Not 850 900 9000 on 2040-cars
Clementon, New Jersey, United States
|
This is a U.S. version 1976 Saab 99 ems. This must be one of the cleanest, most rust free, original, and low mile 99 ems' survining. I am only the second registered owner of the vehicle. The prior TX owner purchased the car with approximately 62,000 miles and put the additional 929 miles on the odometer. The prior TX owner stated the car ran fine when he bought it almost 8 years ago, but that it needed brake and AC work. The prior TX owner did not have time to attend to the car so it primarily sat in his garage. I have confirmed in the approximate two years of ownership that the car does need its brake master cylinder replaced or rebuilt. I have not diagnosed or attempt to repair the AC, but all the components such as the compressor and controls appear to be present. Since the car sat for some time, I have done extensive work on the fuel system including dropping and relining the fuel tank, replacing the fuel pump, fuel accumulator, most fuel lines, and fuel filter. The car now cranks and starts well but it has a hard time remaining running. I suspect the fuel system requires further tweaking. I am very reluctantly selling this car but I really do not have further time to attend to it and the garage space its occupied while under my ownership will no longer be available. The car was bought my the prior TX owner from the original owner in California. The original CA owner was an older gentlemen and did not use the car much over the years and typically kept it garaged. This car is as original as when it left the showroom in 1976. The interior is in impecable condition with no rips, no stains, and not really even any wear on the seats or carpet. (Please note, the dash has no cracks but material on the right side has started to pull back/shrink and the head liner is drooping although still in nice shape (see pictures).) It has the oringial EMS details such as the gauges, badging, stripes, special front grill, and air dam. The body is very solid, rust free, straight, and clean with no signs of any kind of body work. The paint is original and only slightly dulled as one would expect from nearly a 40 year old car. The paint does have one small blemish in the left rear quarter panel area (see picture). The wheels are the original EMS "soccer ball" type. The bumpers are straight and clean. This car does not have a radio or the plastic housing underneath the middle of the dash to house a radio. I do not believe a radio was ever equiped with this car. In addition, the rear antenna is missing but the wiring is present. The clutch and hydraulics all worked well according to the prior TX owner, however since the car has been sitting for 6 years, it is being sold as is. I am hoping a Saab enthusiast will find this a very worthy car to complete. You will not be disappointed in the original condition of this car. The car comes with a clear PA title and Saab owners manual. The buyer will have to arrange and pay for transport. I'm happy to help assist with arangement where possible. I'm not familiar with overseas shipping so please contact me prior to bidding if you are an overseas bidder. Full payment must be received within 3 days of auction end. A deposit of $1,000 is expected within 24 hours of auction end. I reserve the right to end this auction early should it be sold elsewhere as this car is for sale locally as well. My feedback speaks for itself. Please only bid if you are seriously interested. Do not waste my time or the time of serious bidders. Thank you for your interest and please let me know if you have any questions.

Son surprises mom with her dream car, a 1973 Saab 99
Wed, Aug 13 2014Often, it feels like the news is just a never-ending stream of one depressing headline after another. It can be so liberating to see something positive and uplifting every once in a while. Just look at the ecstatic expression on this mother's face after receiving her dream car from her son. Mom has some seriously quirky taste too: she isn't after a muscle car or a two-seat droptop; instead, it's a 1973 Saab 99 EMS in a very '70s shade of copper at the top of her wish list. According to the video, it took her son about a year to track down this hunk of Swedish steel and save up the money to purchase it. Though, judging from his mom's reaction, it was worth every penny. She puts together what's going on with the Saab pretty quickly and immediately starts swearing at her son – out of love, of course. If you're feeling a little blue, consider this a much-needed pick-me-up. Watching the unbridled joy of someone getting something that they always wanted just feels wonderful.
Super sleeper Saab 900 does 174 mph in the standing mile
Sun, 14 Apr 2013Somewhere behind Hennessey setting a new top speed record at this year's Texas Mile with its camouflage Ford GT, a stock-looking 1996 Saab 900T pulled up to the line to see what it could do. The dealer showroom wheels wouldn't offer any indication that the 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood was getting help from a Garrett turbocharger, a tuned ECU and E85 gas to put out 465 horsepower at the front wheels.
Knowing that, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that at the other end of the mile the sky blue Swedish wonder was doing 174 miles per hour. The four-cylinder class at the Texas Mile has plenty such rockets, too, this Swede coming just behind a Dodge Neon that did 175.8 mph. You can watch the Saab do its thing in the video below.
NEVS Sango autonomous shuttle rises from the ashes of Saab
Sat, Jul 4 2020National Electric Vehicles Sweden (NEVS), the company that purchased Saab's bankrupt carcass in 2012, has introduced an autonomous ride-sharing shuttle named Sango and announced plans to test it in real-world conditions. It also outlined a system named PONS that will allow operators and riders to connect with the shuttle. Saab famously claimed its cars were born from jets, but the Sango looks more like something you'd find in a store that sells small kitchen appliances than on an aircraft carrier sailing across the Atlantic. It wasn't designed to go fast, or to deliver engaging handling. Stylists intentionally gave it a boxy silhouette to maximize interior space and let operators offer three cabin configurations called private, social, and family, respectively. Its six seats can be moved around and rotated as needed, and the passengers can raise privacy walls if they don't feel like socializing with fellow riders. The shuttle's seating capacity drops to four with the walls raised. Chinese technology firm AutoX provided the Sango's self-driving hardware and software, though NEVS pointed out its shuttle is modular enough to use any autonomous system on the market. This is a wise strategy that widens its target audience. Operators will in theory be able to choose whether they want to purchase a turn-key self-driving shuttle or buy the basic structure and stuff their own technology into it. NEVS grouped the app customers will use to request a ride and a fleet management system into a software package it named PONS. Technical specifications haven't been released. All we know is that it's electric. NEVS confidently stated autonomous shuttles are closer to the mainstream than many think. "Getting from A to B with self-driving electric vehicles is not as far off as perhaps the car industry is implying. The era of one person per car and the era of owning a car are soon things of the past," opined Anna Haupt, the company's vice president of mobility solutions, in a statement. Engineers have started testing the first running Sango prototype at NEVS' headquarters in Trollhattan, Sweden. Looking ahead, the company plans to deploy a fleet of 10 autonomous shuttles in Stockholm, where they will be used by members of the general public. Autoblog learned from a company representative that testing will probably start in 2022, and that the firm is taking COVID-19-related concerns into account.
