Our SAAB 900 Turbo 16 valve, 4 door (quite rare model in the UK)
Bought with the plan on using it for "road rallies" such as CzeckWrecks and for having comfy trackdays - our alternative GT car.

Ultimate plan is to have it looking something like this (including the "trouble" bonnet badge) :

However currently it looks like this:

With the lovely red PIMP interior:

We saved it out of someones garden where it had stood for around 2 years.
First job was to undo some weird "imobiliser" DIY install, with that done it wouldn't run/idle, over fueling or starving itself..
After a lot of troubleshooting it turned out to be the fuel pump and once a working replacement was put in, car fired up first time and run fine as if it had never been standing!

Needs a bit of welding at the front and some general tidying up. A new rad is needed as the current one has lost most of the cooling fins.

UPDATE on this one...
We're gonna just fix her up and probably offer it for sale seeing as it's about the only road worthy 4 door T16 in the UK
