jonny_five's 1991 Saab 900

jonny_five's 1991 Saab 900

I recently purchased this SPG to replace my convertible that was totalled in a tornado

jonny_five's 1991 Saab 900

Although the car spent most of its early life (Birth - 2005) in California, the previous owner lived up north. The trunk and upholstery was fairly damaged. Luckily, it was mainly used in a field and on highways so it was great mechanically. Since I used to work in detailing, I knew I could fix it up pretty well.

Supposedly only 105 SPGs in my color and year had been made

Cool car. I am impressed by your TLC. I would love to get a (somewhat) dumpy 900 SPG to keep as a second car to tinker with and fix up. You should check out Wheeler Dealers' episode with the Saab 900. It's on YouTube in chunks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M83OHR7OLfo
