Vehicle description
Saab 96 1977 Souvenir edition, number 18 of 150 made.Great engine that is Saab sport and rally tuned, steel cam gear, re profiled camshaft, rebored with pistons and con rods replaced, full port polish etc. Loads of work done to it during its lifetime with a folder of receipts and invoices.
Twin choke Weber carb with correct manifold that's matched up with a Jetex straight-through exhaust.
Column shift gear change is smooth and the freewheel is fully operational.
Cleans up nice, could do with some minor bodywork where there are small patches of rust bubbling through and it has had some panels painted in the past, my intention was to get it done with full respray but circumstances mean I just don't have the time now, these fetch silly money in top condition. It's only the bodywork that let's it down a little, everything else is spot on but does still turn heads wherever it goes.
Starts first time, every time.
Shame to see it go but it needs to go where it will be used more.
