Got the 99 back with fresh clutch .. so that's how it is supposed to drive :lol: Now my 900 is off the road due to starter/ignition issues (and hopefully SPG springs install) driving it last 2 days again has given me SAAB fever :silent: ... this is why I have more than 1, so at least one can be driv...

edit: [change in plans]

Bump .. trade for anything of comparable SAAB value/related? Also know a guy willing to part with what I think is the chilton(-esqe?) Workbook for the early 99s. Have associates with complete 1981 turbo shop manuals. And another with a 1981-1993 set ... Both want $$ for them but I may be able to get...

Edit: will consider partial trade options for 900 16V turbo parts ...

In other news, the guy who owns the building my shop is in may have found a buyer for the building, and doesn't know if they would want to keep me as a tenant there or not, will know more in the next few weeks. So I might have a lot of surplus stuff go up for sale on the cheap shortly here.... http...

love this car more than any before it, but I need more space, fewer SAABs, and $$ for major home renovations .. hardly drive this any more; time for one of you to take the wheel. SaabRally price is B.R.O .. Prefer to sell as a package deal (need room to grow a 900 parts stash) but price can be negot...

This 99 looks like a decent car. I bet the seller would give a good deal to a SaabRally member

Also recovered these ..most else is lost except a few transmissions.
thankful I kept some parts indoors

between the floodwaters & ice, for the New Year I decided to clean out my dilapidated shed .. time to install these on the 99

We bought an early Christmas present last month, a 95 CSE w/ Aero upgrades plus a number of other goodies! We took the Astro and dolly over to Salem, OR and picked it up. I'm going to have a lot of fun w/ this car :sweden: Hey that's my city :king: I've seen several 9000s on the road and for sale h...

Got some sweet books this year :yay: Also have this 1969-1974 99 shop manual available to anyone who wants it, was a birthday present but my friend didn't notice the year .. I'm never gonna have an early-model 99 :silent: http://www.rassiesauto.co.za/workshop_manuals/saab_99_1969-74.JPG

likewise .. but hopefully people in CA think it's a good deal, drive up prices
of course all 99s are priceless ... selling one seems crazy

Spg springs are considerably lower and stiffer than turbo springs. sweet. will definately have to track those down. Might buy an additional set of wheels this weekend (cos two per SAAB is clearly not enough) The seller is parting out a 1989 9000 turbo ... anything worth grabbing off that? My 900 is...
