I no longer have the saab...its sad but time to move onto better things.. check out my 89 civic si on my link above...

Yo everyone. This is my 1989 Saab 900. I have been driving this car for 3 years now and it?s a roller coaster as most Saabs are. It runs great but when something goes wrong it goes wrong. So far I have had to replace a timing chain that snapped and bent several valves and some other things. Then 2 years later my tranny just about seize up and now I am on my second one and the second gear likes to slip.

Ruffrower's 1989 Saab 900The car has been in a accident a few years ago with the previous owner and if you look real well you can see the rust creeping up on the front drivers side fender. I?m just waiting for it to fall off soon. I would like to repair it but it?s not worth it at this point for me. And the hood is kind of messed up. It has a good gap between the hood and headlight on the passenger side. What a good repair. Yeah ok.

I have also bought some extra stuff for the out side of my car to add just a little something. I added a pair of smoked side turn signals and a set of vent covers.

Here is a rear shot of the Saab... And yes I have an exhaust from a turbo and boy does it sound good. The other one fell off little by little due to no shocks.Ruffrower's 1989 Saab 900 Ruffrower's 1989 Saab 900

Here is the shot of one of the tires. Michlin Energy or something like that lol. with 15inch rims and factory Saab hubcaps which i love. The tires were taken off of an 84 saab turbo and they are over sized. : D

I only had one.. My bought a 85 i think it was an it was a 900 Turbo. So when he got rid of that i took the muffler since mine was rusting away. so just one. And it wasn't really loud. It was alittle louder then what i did have and it had a nice hum to it... oh man it was nice
