This is a really nice classic 900. I was amazed at the condition. There is no rust on the car. I have been driving it from State College to Altoona the past month for work with no problems and I have been getting about 22 miles to a gallon! The leather is in great shape minus the hole on the side of the drivers seat and stitching. No cracking at all! The top is in great condition minus the stretching below the back window. I just cleaned and conditioned it and there are NO LEAKS! Car has less about 115K original on it. I also have the convertible boot cover with the bag! Car runs and drives amazing for being 22 years old. 

I took it down to Smeltz Auto in Lewisburg, PA (only place I know of that works on Saabs) and they checked the car out. I was told it is in great shape with no rust. At that time I had the AC serviced and retro fitted to R134 and it blows ICE COLD! They serviced the transmission and did a full syn oil change for me. The guy I got it from didn't really like the car and didn't really know the history of it. Smeltz said that they believed the transmission had been replaced at one time and didn't find anything in it when they serviced it. 

I have done the following to the car since I bought it;

1. Fixed the dash lights and they all work
2. Fixed the radio installation because whoever put the new radio in it only used the front speakers
3. Fixed the back antenna assembly to actually work
4. Put new headlight bulbs in
6. Put new heater core in

The brakes and tires are like new. Exhaust is an aftermarket one and more "throaty" then the stock exhaust I am use to on the classic 900 Turbos.  Windshield looks like it is brand new as well.  

The things I believe are wrong with the car is more cosmetic then anything. The inside door cloth covers need replaced, back cloth on the side of the speaker covers need replaced, front drivers seat (as mentioned above) and the paint is really faded on the hood. The two mechanical things is that the steering is getting harder to turn so pump, rack or might be a steering knuckle? I'm not sure. There is also a vacum leak in the cruise control line. Sometimes the cruise works and sometimes it doesn't. When it does it'll slowly release and loose speed. 

My intention with this car was to work on with my son but we ended up getting another car and really don't want this one taking up room in the garage but will if we don't/can't sell it. I would have no issues driving this car anywhere and will continue to drive it to work in Altoona from Bellefonte until I sell it or winter finally gets here. 

Price is negotiable so if you are interested shoot me a message.  I really want to get this car gone before the winter.  I would NOT hesitate to drive it anywhere in the USA.  I just want to see this go to another Saab guy or gal.

ADDED:
The top goes up and down with the button, no problems.  No sounds, hesitation, etc.  Windows all go up and down.  Mirrors work with switches.  Engine has full synthetic in it....5w40 and changed right before I got it.

The instrument cluster was changed at Euro Motors in Harrisburg and shows milage of 140,000 and I have paperwork for the job from them in the glovebox.  True milage is around 115K give or take a couple hundred.  

Stereo is a Pioneer CD with audio jack to plug an MP3 player or your phone.  BEST part of driving it is having clean clear music coming out of the speakers.

If you buy the car I could deliver within 200 miles for an extra $200 October 4th.

Vampire Weekend burns for Saab

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Or is it the other way around?
Could Vampire Weekend be trying to tell me something? A just-launched music video for the indie rock band's new single Diane Young features what looks like a pretty mint black Saab 900 Turbo Convertible being torched in slow-motion. In fact, with the exception of a brief, flickering cameo by a 900 three-door of a similar vintage, that's all that there is to the nearly three-minute long video. It's both sad and oddly beautiful.
Coincidentally, I have a similar-looking turbocharged black Saab convertible sitting in my garage, and I've been reluctantly pondering its sale this very week. Admittedly, mine is a later model (2001 9-3 Viggen), but tri-spokes and more tapered rump aside, it looks eerily identical. And while mine isn't mired in flames (I love it too much to torch it), through no fault of its own, it's been sitting motionless far too regularly. Thankfully, I see a better future for it than the droptop seen above.

GM SUV window switch recall urges owners to park vehicles outside

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

It's not unusual for there to be a lag between an automaker announcing a recall and the official documentation showing up on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. So it's no surprise that a recent GM campaign took about a month to appear in its official capacity. However, there appears to be some big differences between the two reports with potential safety implications.
In late June, GM announced that it needed to recall 181,984 examples of the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Buick Rainier, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7x from the 2005-2007 model years, plus the 2006 Chevy Trailblazer EXT and 2006 GMC Envoy XL. The new documents paint a slightly different picture with 184,611 needing repaired and different model years listed.
The reason for the fix is still the same, though. It's possible for fluid to contact the master power window switch module in the driver's door, which can corrode the part. Eventually this could cause a short circuit, leaving the buttons inoperable and potentially leading to a fire. But the new NHTSA documents add an important note: "A fire could occur even while the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made."

Son Surprises Mom With Dream Car

Thu, Aug 14 2014

We can't get enough of these dream car-reveals. Here's the latest one: A son wanted to treat his mom to the car she's had her eye on for years, but it wasn't a restored Porsche or a fancy 1957 Chevy Bel Air. This mom wanted something special – a 1973 Saab 99 EMS painted disco-fever copper. Ever since he was a kid, Corey Wadden's mom has wanted the Saab. Wadden writes on his YouTube video that she first hopped in the driver's seat of one of these odd retro rides while working as a cleaning lady. One of her clients would toss her the keys and let her move the car. She fell in love. After a year of searching and saving, this nominee for best son in the world brought his mom down to the parking lot, where her dream ride awaited. First, he handed her an envelope with a picture of the car and the keys, a dead giveaway. She quickly put two and two together, and lost it before making it to the parking lot. She is so happy and full of gratitude that she actually drops to her knees when he opens the door. Wadden writes on his page that his mom lost her job two-and-a-half years ago and hasn't had a reliable car in years. This car aims not just to get her mobile again, but lift her spirits. It's also part of the Toronto entrepreneur's promise to become a millionaire by the time he is 25 to help his mother retire. Related Gallery The Best Cars For Empty Nesters Weird Car News Saab
